ROVIGO – «Let’s change Europe before it changes us», starts the petition to remove the electoral poster near the station: «It’s racist». For a few days, a League poster for the European elections has been hanging on a wall near the Rovigo station. In the image a woman with the niqab and the writing: “Let’s change Europe before it changes us”.

The slogan made many people turn up their noses and define it as “racist”. A petition to remove him has been launched on the online platform Change.org and has already reached almost a thousand signatures. In the petition promoted by Elena Rossi we read: «Is this really the first image of Rovigo that we want to give to those who arrive in our city? Is this the best we can offer?”

In view of the European elections on 8 and 9 June, the signatory asks: «We ask the administration and the ASM to remove the racist and discriminatory billboard which, from the beginning, should never have found space within our city» .
