The ruling rightwing League party
said Friday that CGIL union leader Maurizio Landini's words
apparently linking workplace accidents deaths to the
government's reintroduction of subcontracting amid a Florence
disaster that is feared to have killed at least six workers in
the Tuscan capital Friday were "disgusting".
"The words of Maurizio Landini, who comments on the accident at
work in Florence also blaming the new procurement code, are
disgusting: the secretary of the CGIL ignores that the new rules
were wanted by Europe, so much so that Italy was at risk of
infringement, and that they have nothing to do with the
tragedy," read a League statement.
"The ideological hatred of the CGIL does not stop even in the
face of tragedies," said the second biggest member of Giorgia
Meloni's government.
CGIL is Italy's biggest and most leftwing trade union
federation.
