The attacks via social media to the deputy minister of the economy Laura Castelli continue after her words on the restaurateurs who have aroused controversy and a letter from various operators in the sector including the star chef Vissani. Fake news defended itself, revealing that it had received insults and offenses on social media and showing some. "An unprecedented attack - complaint on Facebook - fueled by a disinformation campaign artfully mounted by that part of the opposition that says it wants to collaborate, but prefers to falsify my words". "Political director Vito Crimi dryly defines them as" nauseating attacks of a "black politics". The protest of the restaurateurs remains: "We don't need help to change the way we do our business", they write piqued in their letter. Instead they ask " concrete and sufficient aid to safeguard our activities, willing to make further indebtedness ". And they refuse incentives for agile work:" Without workers, students and tourists thousands of hotels, museums and public establishments will shortly lower the shutters to never raise them again " .
The whole center-right takes sides with them. The League goes further: from his tour in Puglia Matteo Salvini asks for the resignation of the deputy minister. And it does it in its own way. "Since yesterday I have met restaurateurs, bartenders and hoteliers who tell me: 'Castelli is an idiot'. They are right." Words that do not go down to the colleague of Castelli, the Deputy Minister of Economy Antonio Misiani of the Democratic Party, who expresses public solidarity with her. "The wickedness and contempt that the populist right reserves for women who are in government (to which my total solidarity goes) are unbearable, totally out of proportion to what is being addressed to male equals".
The Movement builds a wall around the grill that helped to write the government contract with the Northern League. That at that point accuses Salvini of raising his voice against her while he is silent on the investigation into the funds of the League which would involve three accountants close to the party. "We are proud of our government team, I imagine that Salvini will be as proud of the team of accountants," the Undersecretary for Relations with Parliament Gianluca Castaldi provocatively reminds him. More direct ex-minister Danilo Toninelli: "Salvini tries desperately to divert attention, while chilling details continue to emerge on the investigation".
