Another Le Pen, trying to whitewash some of her worst beliefs of late. Italy historically has always veered between Fascist and Communist styles with the Vatican often the power broker.

As it will be another coalition government she'll have to water down her more extreme views to keep any coalition together

Sweden is turning right too. The most liberal nation in Europe pretty much.
Bolsonaro on course to lose this weekend but might not accept the election result.

Politics? Current affairs? Good point - done Italy will move to the right, the question is just how farGiorgia Meloni is not a fascist. Yes, the logo of her party is a hangover from its fascist origins and, yes, the teenage Ms Meloni once expressed her admiration for Mussolini's leadership qualities. But no, she's not a fascist, a word that gets thrown around far too carelessly.news.sky.com/story/italy-will-move-to-the-right-the-question-is-just-how-far-12705513

She'll probably go to Israel or declare undying love for that country. Like Orban and Bolsonaro (and Trump) have done.
That's the playbook for these cockroaches to cowardly hide themselves behind. Oh look at me I'm not a fascist I love Israel.
As if that proves anything.

Israel is a win-win for rightists, allowing them to suck up to an Apartheid state and virtue signal at the same time See also… amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/sep/25/moving-british-embassy-jerusalem-outrage
