The webpage Breitbart on Salvini’s announced closure of the Roma camps in Italy. Allegedly “illegal” but run by the police, the municipalities, and NGOs…
In case you doubted this webpage’s views …

A Roma camp ce borders the cemetery. At the expenses of a Roma camp which will have to move (Alternative? None).
Anyhow it doesn’t really matter as Salvini has decided to close all Roma camps.

Two Roma kid stole a car and ran over a woman before crashing into a police car. This prompted another Salvini outburst against hardened criminals, the criminal culture of camps (run by the state btw – and provided of bribes via the mafia to politicians)…

The Italian train conductor who ranted in the train asking for “Gypsies to get off the train” is returning to work.
She says it was wrong to say it, and she did not know the microphone was on …… That is the thing she probably regrets.

If you need any proof that Breitbart and Salvini pander to racists and the extreme right, read this. A single crime does not brand an entire ethnic group as thieves and worse.

An Italian train conductor in a train in Northern Italy gave an announcement asking “Gypsies to get off at the next station” …
