Hunting: the senators of the Northern League, Paolo Arrigoni and Stefano Candiani, in a press release contest the prohibitions on roccoli and culinary traditions based on game such as the Brescia spit and polenta e osei, “Serious blow to the rural world”.
"Serious blow to the rural world - say the Northern League senators - inflicted treacherously by the majority of the government which has effectively canceled historical traditions such as the capture of decoy birds for hunting with roccoli and the possibility of cooking in everything the country the ancient dishes based on small game. We like to proudly remember the famous Brescia spit and the Bergamo polenta e osei. ".
Continuing Arrigoni and Candiani add, "The great technical work articulated in amendments and agendas that as Northern League on behalf of Candiani and Arrigoni first in committee and yesterday in the classroom we produced to try in every way to make people understand the damage they were doing. Unfortunately, the Czech and deaf animal-environmentalist ideology of this majority did not want to hear or understand reasons and fired on all our amendments that simply wanted to protect the rural identity of all the peoples that make up our country with extreme reasoning. peninsula".
“So goodbye - continues the note - to the capture of decoy birds with roccoli due to a majority far from the traditions and demands of an entire territory such as Lombardy, Veneto, Emilia, Friuli, etc. They sanctioned the end of a historical tradition with speciously absurd and damaging decisions artfully interpreted by tendentious officials and parlor environmentalists, legitimizing yet another short-sighted choice of a Europe without values or traditions that is subservient to minority but noisy and violent groups " .
“We as the Northern League are for the rules, but that they are just, certain and not punitive for mere ideological instances and above all rules respectful of the historical and cultural identity of the peoples. With the sad page written yesterday by the Renzi government against the hunting world, a very hard blow was actually struck to our economy. Once again, the arms sector and the entire supply chain connected to it will be punished as well as the entire chain of restaurateurs who throughout the national territory have skilfully specialized over the years and had structured the budget of their business on the traditional cuisine of small game " .
"In this case - the Northern League senators conclude - today the approval of the amendments to law 157/92, chosen by a handful of short-sighted bureaucrats and politicians, will not be limited to eliminating only the Brescia spit or the Bergamo polenta and osei but all regional Italian dishes, which still represent today ".
