I’ve heard it said that Meloni is actually more of a traditional conservative/centre-right politician but one who gives the aura of being a far-right populist to rally her base and co-opt actual far-right figures in her own coalition. How true is this?
I’m not Italian, but looking from another country… She’s not exactly what I’m most worried about in terms of the far-right in Europe. Don’t get me wrong, from what I do know of her, I wouldn’t vote for her myself. But at the same time, I can kind of see why she’s popular during a time when incumbent politicians are usually unpopular.
> But that invincible aura has now been shattered by her decision to call a referendum on her proposed judicial reforms, a flagship policy she claimed was needed to end supposed political interference by the courts.
Authoritarians sure to do love attacking the rule of law (rights).
Greedy Meloni, there’s obviously a master plan and nullifying the judiciary was a key part of that.
Any Italians here? The article lists the PSI alongside PD and M5S as a major Meloni opposition force, which is… odd. As far as I know the PSI today is a 2007 micro-party refoundation with zero parliamentary seats and polling below statistical noise. Was this written by an AI that got confused with the historic Craxi-era PSI? 😅
Meloni is a neofascist, like Salvini.
Idk, Australia’s PM managed to win in a landslide after losing a big referendum
