EU leaders expressed concern on Friday about the rise of populism within the bloc, fueled by the migrant crisis, as Italy came a step closer to forming its first anti-establishment government.

“Being a good Italian also means being a good European citizen. It needs to be repeated out loud, especially now,” EU parliament head Antonio Tajani said at the State of the Union conference in the Tuscan city of Florence.

Italy’s populist Five Star Movement and far-right League party are currently locked in negotiations to form a coalition to lead the country. Should they succeed, the new government would represent a significant change in policy for the Eurozone’s third largest economy whose outgoing government is pro-European and center-left.

The nationalist League is particularly euroskeptic and has advocated renegotiating European treaties, and insisted the euro is doomed to fail.

“Leaving the single currency would be shooting oneself in the foot,” said Tajani, in what appeared to be a direct warning to the League. …

This is huge news folks. If these 2 parties can agree to govern together they will turn Italy 180 degrees and save it from the eu immigrant invasion.

Lessee—if you want to keep a single European currency you will have to open your doors to millions of illegal hostile aliens who will try to rape women in your family, kill you and your children and your grand-children and turn your country into a Muslim caliphate.

Decisions, decisions, decisions....

MIGA! I love it!

Get used to it, you sorry-a$$ liberals! Italians are fed up with “migrants” profaning their cathedrals, and with the EU telling them that they have to love it.

Get out of the EU! Dissolve it!

The EU was created to eliminate the various countries and to create a larger very socialist state that would distribute the money created by productive Whites/Christians to non-productive turd world entities.

The EU is a disaster.
