Manuela Lanzarin
Manuela Lanzarin (Bassano del Grappa, 3 June 1971) is a Venetist politician from Veneto, Italy.
A member of Liga Veneta–Lega Nord since the early 1990s, Lanzarin was mayor of Rosà from 2002 to 2012. In the 2008 general election she was elected to the Chamber of Deputies. Five years later she got a low slot in the party's Venetian slate for the Senate and was not elected.[1][2][3][4] In fact, due to her closeness to Luca Zaia[5] and her loyalty to former Lega Nord leader Umberto Bossi,[6] she was not popular with the new leadership led by Flavio Tosi.[3]
In 2015, after Tosi was sidelined by the federal party, Lanzarin made her comeback and was elected to the Regional Council from Zaia's personal list in the province of Vicenza.[7] After the election, Zaia, who had been re-elected President, appointed her regional minister of Social Affairs.[8]
