Premier Giorgia Meloni's Brothers of
Italy (FdI) House Whip Tommaso Foti on Wednesday said CGIL trade
union leader Maurizio Landini's call to a social revolt over the
2025 budget verged on a criminal act.
"We ask ourselves with what courage the general secretary of the
CGIL, Maurizio Landini, incites social revolt," said the FdI
bigwig.
"Landini should be very careful, in inciting social revolt,
because it constitutes the basis of a crime, in addition to
completely losing face.
"We understand that today Landini must try to be a revolutionary
in Italy to try to ape the millions of Americans who have really
made the revolution with their vote, on the other hand", he
said, referring to Donald Trump's presidential election win.
"After the increase in his salary of almost three hundred euros
a month in the face of his appeals for a minimum wage, he is
left alone to believe his hilarious proclamations of
insurrection".
FdI Deputy Senate Whip Antonella Zedda said Landini's call was
reminiscent of the leftist intellectuals who justified the armed
struggle of leftists militants including the Red Brigades during
Italy's Years of Lead.
