Walter Veltroni

One of the symbols of the left that, instead of fighting against the center-right, fueled its rise with stunning own goals, engaging in masochistic acts like making backroom deals with "B." to undermine opponents within the party, and the usual obsession that lasted for much of the 90s and early 2000s of fighting more against "dissidents" on the left than against opponents. A symbol of a dreadful Italy.
