Italy's relationship with the EU has deteriorated since an anti-establishment government took the reins in Rome last year. And for Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, that breakdown has coincided with a surge in popularity.
div > div.group > p:first-child"> Tensions between Rome and Brussels have risen on different occasions since the new coalition took power last June. There has been a dispute over how much the Italian government wants to spend; an intense exchange of words over the collapse of a bridge in the city of Genoa during the summer; and an ongoing battle over immigration.
"Unfortunately, Italian governments over the past five years have signed agreements so that all these ships disembark immigrants in Italy," Salvini said last year."With our government, the music has changed and will change." In upcoming European parliamentary elections, due in late May, Lega is also polling well. It's set to become the second single-largest party in the European chamber with 28 out of 705 seats, according to a survey by the European Parliament.
