The only antidote to racism - and the Italians are anything but racist - is to return to a respect for laws and regulations and monitor who enters and who leaves this country.

I want to highlight that Italy, every year, sends 6 billion euros in cash to Brussels. I cannot give these 6 billion euros to Brussels and then let them damage us on the fronts of agriculture, migration, fishing, commerce and finance. Why am I giving 6 billion to receive nothing in return?

The problem of the Muslim presence is increasingly worrying. There are more and more clashes, more and more demands. And I doubt the compatibility of Italian law with Muslim law, because it's not just a religion but a law.

Islamic extremism is the prime enemy of civil society and social peace, both in Italy and in Israel.

Centuries of history risk disappearing if Islamization, which up until now has been underestimated, gains the upper hand.

With Islam, there's the Sharia. There's the Islamic law which prevails, and as long as it doesn't distinguish between God and the state, it's a problem.
- Matteo Salvini

In my opinion, Islam is an outdated religion. It's not modern. And therefore, there's too much space for violence.

Racist means thinking more highly of another, being superior to another. I don't feel better or superior - white, black, yellow, all the same.

If Macron thinks there is no immigration crisis in Italy, he should open his doors to the 9,000 migrants France agreed to welcome from Italy in accordance with signed European agreements.

The defense of our values and our identity requires regulation of the Islamic presence and Islamic organizations in Italy.

It is evident that the fanatical interpretation of the Koran is incompatible with our values of freedom and with Christian values.

Unfortunately, a certain type of Islam ghettoizes itself and is incompatible with our society. And it amazes me that some within the Catholic hierarchy act as if they do not understand.

An Italy that collects lower taxes, that has well-defined times for the court proceedings, and that has less bureaucracy is good news that reassures the markets.

We are in Europe, and we want a Europe that does few things and does them well, one that recognizes people's identities, languages, etc.

We will work to modify and remove some European parameters, but regarding the euro, I remain convinced that the single currency is destined to end: not because I want it but because the facts, common sense, and the real economy dictate it.

Europe advises, sometimes threatens, and tells us, 'You should make a budget of 10 billion euros in taxes.' Are they joking? The last thing that Italy needs is taxes.

I'm sick of seeing the immigrants in the hotels and the Italians who sleep in cars. This is the racist country.

I am and I will remain a populist, because those who listen to the people are doing their job, whereas the radical chic who disgust workers are no longer wanted by the people.
