The head of Italy's
anti-establishment opposition Beppe Grillo defended his possible
future ally of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) from criticism
in Italian media.
"The Italian press is writing this and that about Nigel
Farage," said Beppe Grillo, the leader of the 5-Star Movement
(M5S), in a tweet.
The comic turned politician then urges his followers to
"spread the truth about Farage," posting a link to a UKIP press
release that outlines the statutes of the European Federalists
Party (EFP) that UKIP belongs to in the European Parliament.
Among the highlighted statutes are a vow to "oppose
xenophobia, anti-Semitism, and any other form of
discrimination".
