Umberto Bossi, the return to Bridge – BBC

I have already called the covenant of Ponte di Legno. And is the handshake that Saturday night at the Castle Caparini you are given Umberto Bossi and Matteo Salvini. A deal which means relaxation, non-aggression seen that the visions of the two on the future of the League are conflicting. And in particular it is the South that divides them. “Never will a vote from there – says the president – And more will end up losing those of the north.” Bossi is back in Valcamonica after five years of absence. The last time was in 2011, he was the undisputed leader, dictated the line of the summer political rally since mid-August high Valcamonica and had no rivals. Then the earthquake, judicial scandals, the magic circle that crumbles, the “scope” that invoke cleaning before Maroni and then Salvini to take the reins of the movement and to dictate the line in August from Ponte. Bossi, the League invited to the party for a debate, appeared to all in great shape. Argumentative as always, sincere in his way. “I am like the King of Spain at the battle of Pavia that in order to win shooting the horses – he says – what cavalierly unseemly.” Who would be king? He speaks of Rome as the capital, but clearly alludes to Renzi. For him and ready a rhyming refrain. “Go back to your village or toscanello ….”

Night Shift: Bossi in Ponte di Legno

 

It is not over. Here’s a complaint: “The north pay taxes for everyone, even for the south. It is not right ‘. And again: “How do they reward? There is no work. Abound unemployed. And still want to touch pensions. Warning that this time can blow up the country. ” Bossi spills the beans to two hours from the meeting with the people of the Northern League in dalignese sports hall. It is not a boss in shirtsleeves but in dark blue suit. The jacket a badge depicting Alberto da Giussano. One exception: the hiking boots. No longer the Bossi with the plaid shirt. Only the green handkerchief remained. Silk and neatly folded in his breast pocket. And really want to do the big boy despite his 75 years who will be in September. We stuck his Audi close to Edolo. The driver approached and senatur agreed to chat. To Edolo bar immediately it became crowd. Bossi is still very popular. Although five years have passed loyalists have not forgotten him. Here an autograph, beyond a group photo with family. A Swiss girl runs to kiss him and is keen to let people know what is the canton. From a coffee table a group of elderly sings a song of the mountain. Bossi joins the chorus, his voice is found. But it is just to participate. Then a stop in Ponte di Mirella hotel’s Andrea Bulferetti wood, old supporter. Bulferetti is the landlord of the senatur he attended for two decades. Without the proper proportions this back a little reminiscent of that of Napoleon from Elba. And how true that Napoleon does not suddenly eclipsed during a masquerade party so it is true that Bossi’s return was prepared and waiting. In fact, surprisingly, that the handshake with Salvini and forty-minute meeting.
