(fixes typo in Berlusconi)
Northern League leader Matteo
Salvini called on former premier Silvio Berlusconi Thursday to
support his anti-immigrant campaign due to climax with a
three-day 'national shutdown' in Noverber.
"I am more interested in the reaction of the citizens, who
are dying from taxes, rather than of the parties," Salvini told
Gr1 national radio.
"I hope that those in opposition will give us a hand, that
we'll vote again (in a general election) and and finally do
something, and I hope that Berlusconi will be in the game,"
Salvini added.
Meanwhile the centre-left governor of the Friuli region,
Debora Serracchiani, lashed out at the League firebrand, saying
"Salvini at this moment is the problem for Italy, he certainly
is not the solution".
