Councilor Angela Maria Sartini (already suspended by the League) immediately revoked the powers assigned to her in the municipal council of Orvieto after she published on her personal Facebook profile a photo of Hitler smiling and on the phone with the words “hello Mario wanted to make you the compliments”. This was announced by mayor Roberta Tardani, who leads a center-right executive. This always explained on Fb that the decision was made “in the light of the intolerable and inappropriate post”.
“One can not share and criticize the decisions of a government – wrote Tardani – but what has been published cannot be tolerated or justified and I do not want it to be in the least compared to this administration and in no way to the history and image of our city. ️ While waiting for a confrontation with the League and the other majority political forces, I will hold back to me the proxies previously assigned to councilor Sartini “.
For the now former councilor, the Umbria League had already ordered “immediate suspension” from the party. “We believe the post – underlined the party – completely inappropriate and in bad taste. Even legitimate dissent with respect to the decisions taken by the Government cannot and must never go beyond common sense.
It is even more serious to bring up such painful pages of history.
In the next few days, the regional executive will meet the same councilor for a discussion “.
Reached by ANSA, Sartini said she did not want to comment on the post, which was then removed.
The commissioner was responsible for social policies and services, family, school, education and training, young people and the future, equal opportunities and gender policies.
The municipal councilor of opposition to the center-right council Franco Raimondo Barbabella always stigmatized the post on Facebook, underlining: “if a councilor in office, expression of a government party, publishes a photo of Hitler who congratulates the prime minister, the meaning of which cannot escape anyone, what kind of problem does it pose not only to itself but to the mayor? Several comments to the post on social media also from various citizens who criticize the content.
