Centre-left parties slam ‘racist, Islamophobic and xenophobic’ faked images posted on social media by League party

The centre-left Democratic party (PD), with the Greens and Left Alliance, filed a complaint on Thursday with Agcom, the Italian communications regulatory authority, alleging the fake images used by the League contained “almost all categories of hate speech”.
