Silvio Berlusconi’s press officer complains (Letters, February 10) about
the use of the term neo-fascists by Tristram Hunt in his comment piece (February
6).
Now he has less cause for complaint. On Friday, Berlusconi signed an
electoral agreement with Alessandra Mussolini’s far-right Alternativa Sociale
whose politics are unashamedly neo-fascist. Berlusconi is in a political
alliance with an acknowledged fascist group, in the heart of Europe.
All
democrats should mobilise to prevent him being re-elected.
