I think you should redirect this article to the correct name, that is L'Unione, and redirect the english translation. As a matter of fact, The Union doesn't exist. --joana 12:25, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

"Murder of Francesco Fortugno

Francesco Fortugno, vice-president of the Council of Calabria, was murdered by two killers when he was waiting in line to vote in a polling station located in Locri. The act was assumed to have political significance since the murderers killed him on a political occasion and with dozens of witnesses. The administration Fortugno was a part of had previously removed many administrators, and some saw this murder as an act of retribution from the 'Ndrangheta against Agazio Loiero's administration."

That's good information and all, except it doesn't say which party, or even coalition Fortugno belonged to. Was he a member of the Union, in which case are we assuming that the murderers were connected to the House of Freedoms, or vice-versa? --194.72.70.115 20:01, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

He was member of the Daisy. Fixed. For the rest, nobody is assuming about House of Freedoms' connections witht the murder, it actually was the 'ndrangheta, a kind of Calabrian mafia if we wanna make things simple. --Angelo 22:19, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Defunct coalition?

Presumably with recent events, L'Unione is no more? --Free Socialist (talk) 14:46, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

The Union was a political coalition founded for the 2006 elections, and will not appear for the upcoming April election, so I'd say it's actually defunct. --Angelo (talk) 16:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
