"We Are The New Falange"

Umberto Bossi, the Northern League leader, kept up the intimidating rhetoric, arriving for the first session of Italy's parliament warning of violence if the centre-left did not go along with his plans for federalism. "I don't know what the left wants [but] we are ready," he told reporters. "If they want conflicts, I have 300,000 men always on hand."

Straight-arm salutes and cries of Il Duce! Before you know it they'll be burning down the Reichstag, invading Abyssinia and firebombing northern Spain.
