Lega's Borghi says Italy would solve most of its problems if it had its own currency

Comments by Italy's Lega party economic chief Claudio Borghi

• Would set a 3.1% budget deficit if really aims at confronting the EU

Borghi is also the lower house budget committee head but considering he's from Italy's Lega party it is not surprising for him to make such comments. He's made similar comments in the past (here) and his appointment caused a bit of a scuffle in markets back in June.
