From the Heart of Darkness to the Tuscan Hills
12th September 2020
Last Wednesday former Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini was attacked in Pontassieve, near Florence in Tuscany, while campaigning for the regional elections. His assailant was a Congolese woman whose attack, according to one of the articles below, was not premeditated. However, other sources identify the woman as an “activist”, which would make it less likely that the assault was spontaneous.
My question is, what is a Congolese ‘activist’ doing in Italy? Porous borders are one thing, but this is ridiculous.
