Thousands of protesters gathered in Bologna in northern Italy before a regional vote on January 26.
They’re a part of a”sardines” motion – named for packaging many demonstrators into town squares – and so were demonstrating against far-right pioneer Matteo Salvini.
The team was formed by four strangers from town last November to combat Salvini’s anti-immigration message.
Organizers said about 30,000 to 40,000 people turned up but those figures have not been confirmed by police.
On Saturday at Maranello, Salvini held a rally with Lega candidate Lucia Borgonzoni.
Some surveys show close boundaries between Salvini’s League celebration and the present center-left authorities whilst others reveal that the breakup is broad favoring Salvini.
The former interior ministry expects to bring down the Five-Star Movement later it won the largest vote in federal elections two decades back.
