League leader Matteo Salvini
on Thursday called the government's 2020 budget bill a "Dracula
Budget" because of a series of tax hikes.
"The traitors of the people have taken off their masks. Here
is the 'Dracula Budget'," the anti-migrant Euroskeptic leader
said on the stump for regional elections in Umbria.
"Among (Premier Giuseppe) Conte's selective increases the
hike in taxes for driving schools: after lifting resources from
the disabled this new sting will weigh on the budgets of young
people and families and is joined by new taxes on products
wrapped in plastic (water, biscuits, vegetables and ice cream),
on VAT users and on diesel".
He said the League and its allies would be in Rome's Piazza
San Giovanni on Saturday to "say No to this disgrace".
