The Left and Center-Left lose Italy's election big time.

Italy's ruling centre-left in shock after crushing election defeat

Italy's ruling centre left coalition emerges in third place, hurt by anger over poverty and mass immigration

Italy's political left was in shock after a right-wing alliance emerged with the biggest bloc of votes after Sunday's (March 4) general election. The ruling centre left coalition is third place behind the anti-establishment 5-Star movement.

"It is clear that for us it is a very clear defeat, very clear," said Maurizio Martina, an official from the ruling Democratic Party.

"It is clearly a result below the expectation."

Throughout the night Democratic Party leader Matteo Renzi stayed alone with his party faithful. None of the other parliamentarians, the outgoing ministers, showed up at the headquarters of the democratic party at any point during election night.

"The long night of the democratic party started on March 5," said Euronews reporter Gioia Salvatori. " "What will Renzi decide to do? Will he resign or not? Will he be leading a small parliamentary group or not? All these questions will be answered in the next few hours."
 
Anti-Establishment + Anti-Muslim Invasion = Nationalist revolt. Good for Italy. Now keep the EU out of any participation in decision making and they could be headed back towards sane governance.
 
My opinion has been that Matteo Renzi isn't a bad guy...when he was PM he tried to get some needed reforms through but couldn't get enough people in the coalition to go along. Sort of Italy's version of Tony Blair. Just that with bad economy and the immigration problem his Center-Left party is a little too far Left for most Italians right now. Five Star is a newer party and sort of a 'throw all the bums out" kind of thing.
 
A separate nation with giant walls. To keep out the riff raff err non-believers. I'm with Indy, ready to see fresh white plumes.

They can put the mafia in charge of making that happen.


Lol..Don't think so Indy!... being the devout Catholics that they are...will murder someone on Saturday but be sure not to miss Mass on Sunday!
Remember in The Godfather Michael Carlione made sure his baby was baptized!

They couldn't even kill a nightclub singer wearing a nun's outfit.

I didn't mean that they should kill him, just coerce him to step down. Maybe threaten him with a bat or kidnap a few of his favorite altar boys.
 
It's a fairly big change in politics and will have ramifications throughout Europe and the EU.

People do not want the forced globalization, no borders, every religion is the same narrative that elitists want to create a New World Order. What we see with our eyes and feel with our hearts is very different.

I'm not as crazy right wing as much of what is happening around the world (including Trump and Brexit) but it had to happen as an adjustment to how overboard the ideologies that started to creep into the global power broker narrative from 2010-2016 (and led by our weak President Obama).
 
A lot of it has to do with people over there being tired of dealing with the rapefugees. The media in Europe tries to obfuscate the facts about it.
And our media flat doesn't report it, but the people that live there can see it and they're talking about the problems that the migrants are causing. This is the main reason why many leftist governments in Europe have started arresting people for Facebook posts that tell the truth about Muslim migrant crimes under the guise of laws against inciting racial hatred. Well people still talk about it and Europeans are starting to vote against the politicians that are demanding even more unchecked Muslim migration.

Muslims make up about 25% of the world's population so the One-Worlders need to keep the Muzzies happy if they're going to get them to go along. The NWO leaders have armed security so it's all good for them.

The rapefugees have a stronghold in Sweden, with a lot of Swedish backlash.
I think there's only so much Europe is willing to put up with.

Tbh, I think the far left is a dying party.

You can't survive by tolerating the intolerant.
 
What could possibly go wrong if Italy went Far Right Populist?

San Marzano tomato prices go up?

Far right movements are nearly always a reaction to far left movements. Libs need to police their loonies. They also need to police their socialist movements. Trump would have never happened without Obama.

We got ourselves a real student of history here. And similarly during the French Revolution the real issue was how the price of haircuts increased.

Exactly. Right-wing parties are gaining traction all over Europe in response to the Leftist leadership letting in too many Mus, err, "immigrants" and the associated crime.
 
Along with party leader Matteo Salvini, Iwobi has argued that illegal immigration into Italy has led to an increase in racism.

"Discrimination begins when there are no rules and the state... lets anyone in. Illegality leads directly to violence and a racist response," he said in January.

"The League supports healthy and controlled immigration which can act as a bulwark against racism," he said.

Italy's general election left the country with a hung parliament in which no single party or coalition commands an overall majority.

La Lega selects leader of Nigerian descent, becomes Italy's first black senator. Apparently fluent in 5 languages. Kudos.

As they did in the 1930s with the movement of "swarthy" peoples.

Did the swarthy people belong to a religion that advocated killing everyone who belonged to a different religion?
Asking for a friend.
