Matteo Salvini

During his youth, Salvini became a member of the left-wing autonomous social centre Leoncavallo, ... before he became the main representative of the right-wing faction of the Northern League. Following some criticism directed to Salvini for his change of political orientation, from the left wing to the populist right, Salvini responded: "Ironically, I see more leftist values in the European right than in some left-wing parties; these parties and these movements are those that today defend workers, those who lead right battles. Thus, I do not see anything strange in looking for a dialogue with whoever today embodies the resistance to this wrong Europe." - Wiki
