...shouted and railed against the European Union, rising food prices, and the danger posed by "criminal immigrants." "Anyone who comes here and doesn't work, and becomes a criminal, will be deported!" warns the blue-eyed politico, a dental technician by training, dressed in an elegant brown linen designer jacket, to loud cheers from the gathering crowd and a blast of his own rap song, "Viva H.C.!" from towering speakers...
