    Is she far-right or just not a WEF endorsed globalist?

    They aren’t really ‘far-right’ at all. Solidly right-wing perhaps, but, as if often the case, economically there are many traditional left-wing policies, and the ‘far-right’ label tends to come from the (supposedly liberal) media, concerned more with sensation than historical accuracy.

    Nonetheless, it is a significant shift to the right, but has been coming in Italy for years as their economy has stagnated for many many years and it’s always been an electorate willing to look for more radical solutions – it was home to western Europes most successful Communist party for decades.

    What it does show is that the problems we face are replicated to a greater or lesser extent almost everywhere. The winds blowing through national economies at the moment are regional and global in nature and that’s where the solutions also lie. Some here like to think every problem we face is caused by our government, and so some in Italy think the same. Both are wrong. Expect Italy to elect a left-wing government in their next election, which knowing Italy, probably won’t be more than 2-3 years away.

    According to Wikipedia, " Since the end of World War II in 1945, Italy has had 69 governments, at an average of one every 1.11 years"!

    I did wonder this when I saw the headline, they like to throw around far right/far left labels very often.

    Here is the matrix and viewpoint from political compass:

    Although Meloni, 45, began her political life in the Youth Wing of the fascist Italian Social Movement, she has distanced herself from Mussolini’s suppression of democracy and the anti-Jewish laws. At the same time, her close links to the likes of Spain’s far right Vox Party and Hungary’s authoritarian nationalist leader Viktor Orbán reveal her inner-most instincts. Universal rights and protection of minorities, including the LGBT community, are not to her liking, and there is no question that a Meloni-led coalition would be at odds with much of the EU project. Meloni nevertheless is keen to continue with post-Covid funding from Brussels.

    That sounds pretty far f*cking right to me. She sounds awful.

    Almost as right as the current UK Government! Off the scale I think.

    Agree. Then there's the cynical 'keen to continue with post-Covid funding from Brussels' bit.

    No he isn't. He's absolutely incorrect. To say "Italy's new "far-right" government is almost as right [wing] as the UK's is just plain wrong. Opinions are one thing, and I'll grant you, the definitions of right and left are imperfect, but it is an absurd characterisation.

    What are these policies you speak of!?

    What are these policies you speak of!?
    Deportation of asylum-seekers to Rwanda, Rights to Protest, forcing people with disabilities to work more hours on a whim in Friday's budget (yes, these are the one's who have been incorrectly told they are fit for work and will win after appeal after a year's wait, IF they live that long). Keeping environmental protesters in prison without trial for 6 months. Humiliating disabled people during capability for work assessments. DWP illegally allowing energy companies to take money from vulnerable people at source. Demonising vulnerable people. This stuff we've/I've been on the receiving end of for 12 f*cking years. This is right wing ideology. Just read the stuff Braverman has said recently.

    I'm not in the mood James. He's not incorrect. It's not absurd. It's just that you think these things because you're an apologist for these tw*ts in power and have been ever since I've been reading your posts. We all know this. Take a straw poll mate and see what people think.

    In the same link posted by Eric earlier, here's something else:

    Throughout so much of Europe, we’re seeing the emergence of a sort of national socialism, facilitated partly through the Left’s declining ability to connect with working class voters. In Italy, the progressive parties have failed to counter what looks likely to be a right wing landslide.

    I'd say that's very similar to the rhetoric and actions from the Conservatives wouldn't you?

    Take note Starmer boy!

    Edit: and if that doesn't put the fear of the gods into people, then we're heading for a rinse and repeat of European history and we all know where that leads.

    By the way, I wasn't calling you Starmer boy! I was actually (and pointlessly) speaking directly to him.

    • Ignores the green preaching rubbish

    Is labelled Far Right

    I have no idea if she is far right or not its just a label from the V Signallers which is used so much over every and anything its lost its shock appeal just like the F word has become everyday language.

    Lets's at least give her a week to see if she can out B'stad Truss before applying a label.?

    She sounded sincere in her victory address. But it's Italy. Their politicians are on a par with Greece's as few citizens have an iota of confidence in any of them.

    I see she was fully onboard with the Covid-19 narrative and joined the Aspen Institute last year, which is another globalist think-tank that's crammed with Italy's black nobility clans. It must be odds-on she's a bait and switch wallah, much like Trump.
