Italian Lega MEP Marco Zanni said that the Italian party is close to reaching an agreement with Nigel Farage’s Brexit party for an alliance at the European level.

Zanni said that a meeting with Farage “went very well” adding that “we’ll see if we can wrap things up with him next week”. “We have got to a good stage (in talks). We are convinced we can wrap things up,” he continued.

“It’s beneficial to all of us to be together. I am confident that we can wrap things up next week, aside from what is said in public”.
