So they'll leave the EU and suspend all immigration I'm assuming? A reversal on civil partnerships? Where do I start. They're strongly pro-NATO and they can't do anything to leave the EU because Berlusconi - who's fundamental to keep the coalition together - would make the government fall if such proposal went ahead (not like there's a majority supporting Italexit among them to begin with). I doubt reversing civil partnerships is on their agenda either as they're supported by three-quarters of the country, but LGBT rights progress will obviously stall. Immigration won't be stopped all together of course, but some much-needed measures will be implemented in order to tighten it.

Italy..BEAUTIFUL to visit, but im happy i dont live there (no offence to my italian relatives ) I mean, it depends on where you're from... I was lucky enough to be born in Lombardy from Lombard parents and I have no need or desire to leave, most of my friends I went to school with don't either. But in other parts of Italy there really is no future.

KillingYourCareer Posted September 26, 2022 Posted September 26, 2022 What I get from these results is that the lower and lower-middle classes are expanding, the problem of wealth distribution is increasing. Brothers of Italy caters to lower class right-leaning people, the 5 Star Movement makes the interests of poorer left-leaning voters (I can't believe this party hasn't been erased yet, let alone got 15% and won an entire region ), as opposed to League and Democratic Party that are the preference of the middle and upper class people respectively on the right and on the left. So yeah, the general situation is worrying beyond the results themselves imo. I doubt any measures will be taken to stop this trend, alas.
Riot Posted September 26, 2022 Posted September 26, 2022 I won't stand seeing Giorgia Meloni on my TV everyday for 5 years, I hope the government will fall before that Maybe it's time to move to another country

Time to stop thinking Communism is all about gulag and repression like we're living in URSS 1930. Most of Communist European parties defend social democracy, tax the rich, green politicis, defense of minorities and a free health and education system.

They do so without understanding that there should be a transition process and that some things aren't possible everywhere. With the mindset Italians have developed for centuries, a swift change on certain things is impossible.

Bloodflowers. Posted September 26, 2022 Posted September 26, 2022 The main news in Croatia today is how new Italian prime minister wants to annex Istria and Dalmatia from Croatia and make them a part of Italy like in the old ages. @greeneyedsoul are you ready for Italian tanks to be on your shores and get Crimea'd?

It seems like Istria will join the eurozone a bit earlier than the rest of Croatia. And I always wanted to advance with my Italian skills (B2 knowledge). And is there a better way to learn a language than being forced to?
