Earthquake in the north.

April's revelation of the corruption at the heart of the holier-than-thou Northern League was followed by the collapse of its vote in last month's local elections. Tragically the benign psephological earthquake which had metaphorically struck 'Padania' was followed this month by its literal cousin.

   The picture below graphically reveals that northern Italy's problems don't stem from an influx of African immigrants, as the xenophobic and racist Northern League would have its deluded followers believe. The real danger comes from the African continent itself pushing further into Europe as the Apennine phallus attempts to penetrate  the mons veneris of the Alps. Geologically speaking, Italy is part of Africa not Europe; the real immigrants are the Bossi clan not the poor souls fleeing across the mediterranean to escape war and famine.
