“I'm not racist”. “I'm not Salvini's, I'm not anyone's, it made me so mad that I don't even know why I started telling her that. I also have relatives from the South, I don't know how it came out, my brain went haywire”. This was said on 'La Zanzara' on Radio24 by the woman who he didn't rent the house in Milan to a girl because she is from the South, as reported by the latter in a post on Facebook. The woman told 'La Zanzara' that she had changed her mind about renting because she had decided to sell the house instead: "I even apologized to her," she stressed, saying she was willing to reconsider and rent her the apartment. "But she never answered me again," she concluded. "I even asked her to meet, I am willing to apologize." The woman who was the protagonist of the incredible episode of racism against southerners tried to backtrack.
“I read about a lady from the province of Milan who did not want to rent her house to a girl from Puglia, saying that for her, southerners even in the 4000s are southerners and equal to blacks and Romans. And then she added: I am a Salvini supporter and I am with Matteo, with the captain. I would be pleased if Salvini declared that he is not with her. Long live southerners”. This is what the mayor of Benevento, Clemente Mastella, says.
"It is astonishing to me that in Italy in 2019, racist feelings are still being cultivated towards southerners, which are also covered up with 'political' justifications. Condemning this type of statement is a precise duty of all politicians and, in particular, I believe that the center-right area should not endorse in any way discriminatory expressions like these. I would like to say to Deborah that in the north there are many people who will be happy to rent her a house: she should look for another solution, because the lady in question does not even deserve her money". This was stated in a note by Mara Carfagna, vice president of the Chamber and deputy of Forza Italia, who expressed solidarity with the young woman from Puglia who was refused a house to rent in the province of Milan.
