I'd be grateful if someone could confirm the meeting of 'finiani' for me. Would this refer to Fini (President of the Chamber of Deputies)? I'm assuming this means Fini supporeters, or 'finistas' as we could say if this were a Spanish name.
The context is an article about the proposed legislation for wiretapping/electronic eavesdropping in Italy.
Many thanks, Lilly

Yes, they are Fini's supporters, more specifically this term refers to member of the "Popolo della Libertà" who share Fini's opinions. I think it should be better not to translate it.
