"So what is driving support for his populist far right League?"

Far left politics.

[MrEdd]

The reason for that is that to the press mildly Trotskyite is “far right.”

[E. Pluribus Unum]

George Soros is deeply saddened.

[American in Israel]

Because Italian’s arnt stupid. The damage done to the culture by the Globalists us depressing.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Trump’s Fault! :)

[Lurkinanloomin]

They are sick of their country being overrun with foreigners.

[aquila48]

Because they don’t want an African invasion.

[RayChuang88]

Simple: Italians are sick and tired of the invasion of Muslims from northern Africa.

[clueless_expert]

Trump, Johnson, and now Salvini. It _is_ a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy!!

>> stronghold of the left since the Second World War.

A veiled reference to the “return of Mussolini”

[goldstategop]

One of the Communist Party strongholds in Italy since World War II so this is the mother of all political earthquakes there.

[Vigilanteman]

By jove, I think I’ve got it! Far right in this context means you don’t want your country invaded by head choppers and goat humpers

[Linda Frances]

Spiritual revival I pray.

[dljordan]

The BBC obviously don’t want the Italians to take their land back.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

Will he follow Britain out of the EU?

[BenLurkin]

“Far right”

BBC’s way of describing normal.

[I want the USA back]

Matteo Salvini was kicked out of office as minister of the interior where he was successfully keeping the bearded ones out of Italy. I suspect the pope was instrumental in getting Salvini kicked out.

It’s a coup d’etat, just like in the USA. The only man who was able to keep the facial-hair savages out of the country is being systematically deprived of his elected office by the facial-beard-savage-admirers.

Italy, if you want to keep the Coliseum from becoming a muzzy-latrine, then vote accordingly!

[EEGator]

Moroccans?

[HamiltonJay]

Self determination vs opression from Brussels amband by global elites?

Anyone surprised by the global swing “right” hasn’t been paying attention.

The left came to power in these parlamentary states because you can get elected with 30% of the vote... this system allows an organized determin minority to over represent itself and takes time for the other 70% to unify against them... eventually however it happens.

The left wing globalist March of the post war has finally pushed too far, and managed to get the majority to unite against them.

[PapaBear3625]

The Italian people have seen that ALL the Establishment parties will be for unlimited immigration, so it’s time to give a chance to the only party that seems serious about stopping immigration
