Has Fascism risen from the ashes?
The elections in Italy proved the polls right, and the polls made the right very happy. Meloni will likely become Italy’s first female prime minister. Her coalition won 55-60 % of the seats in both houses. It is said that she’ll be the first Far Right prime minister since WWII.
I object to this description, since Mussolini cannot really be described as Far Right. But Meloni and her party have been described as Radical Right, which is subset of the Far Right in that just as the Far Right they’re extremely Right-wing, but unlike the Far Right, they’re not opposed to the constitutional democratic order. As such, Meloni will be the first Radical Right prime minister within the EU.
