Meloni Polling at Record Highs Ahead of Forming Centre-Right Government
Chris Tomlinson
Firebrand conservative Giorgia Meloni and her Brothers of Italy (FdI) have reached a new record high in the polls as she continues her work in forming the next Italian government.
The new poll, conducted by the firm Swg, shows Meloni and her FdI polling even higher than their September 25th election result at 27.5 per cent, the highest polling number the party has ever achieved in its history.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party (PD), which finished second in last month’s election, are on the decline with 17.5 per cent of the vote, below their election result of around 19 per cent, the newspaper Il Giornale reports.
The Five Star Movement (M5S), who collapsed in the last election compared to their performance in the 2018 election, are gaining ground according to the Swg poll, and sit at 17 per cent, possibly heading past the PD.
Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy were the most popular party among workers and the middle class in last weekend’s election, while the wealthiest Italians, along with university graduates, were more likely to vote for left parties. https://t.co/R1hW01QTAr
