"The League needs a new leader.
It needs a new leader who goes in the direction of autonomy, who puts the northern question back at the center. Could Giorgetti replace Salvini? Giorgetti is a good guy, but not good enough otherwise they'll massacre him. If the base doesn't approve the programs, you're not going anywhere. It becomes a soap bubble": thus Umberto Bossi in Gemonio (Varese) for the 40th anniversary of the League.
