  1. “shares values and experiences with the British Tories, the U.S. Republicans and the Israeli Likud.” That’s ok then?

  2. Meanwhile, our tories are currently doing their best to further open up the far right Pandora’s box while everything in the country goes to shit.

  3. She’s a complete moron, neo-fascist and unfortunately the frontrunner in the upcoming elections.

    She’s luring voters with promising a 23% flat tax for autonomous workers (self-employed), which she’ll never be able to do and even if she did it would be disastrous, which reminds me of Liz’s promises.

    Edit: clarified self-employed workers

  4. Her party is the heir of the fascist party. She has Caio Giulio Cesare Mussolini (no, that’s not a joke, it’s Benito’s grand-nephew) on her lists and for the occasion had t-shirts made with the inscription “Mussolini è tornato” (Mussolini is back). Her moto is “Europe bad, migrants bad, lgbt bad”. She’s 100% a fascist and only an evil bunch can be endorsed by this crazy b…

  5. >The head of the Brothers of Italy has rejected claims that her party’s members are the heirs to Mussolini

    That would be easier to deny if one of Mussolini’s literal heirs (granddaughter Rachele) was not one of their councillors.

  6. >The head of the Brothers of Italy has rejected claims that her party’s members are the heirs to Mussolini

    ONE OF THE COUNCILLORS IS HIS LITERAL HEIR

  7. Fascists don’t think they’re fascist, racists don’t think they’re racist. And the same for any other xenophobic type of person. Once you realise this, it’s easier to understand how they can continue to have such awful views on things.

  8. You don’t have to be fascist to like the Tories, however you are closer to being fascist than is desirable. The Tories are not the centre right that Cameron tried to be anymore, they lost the centrists and moderates long ago. It is now very much the party of the far right, now that UKIP no longer exists in any form.

  9. Of course they do. Fascist Italy is the only other country in the world that has the same ideal of a merger between business and state that we do. Its literally what far right ideology leads to. Its the ultimate expression of it: the antithesis of communism.

  10. She’s a Pseudo Fascist who likes other Pseudo Fascists.

    Eventually they’ll all be proper fascists and oh look, it’s 1935 again

  11. lol don’t the italians know what happened to their country the last time fascists got into power? not to mention mussolini….

  12. I’ve never seen more swastika graffiti than when I was living in Italy. There’s still a fondness for the Mussolini years

    Edit: although when I was in Bologna that was anarcho-commie central so everything goes over there I guess

  13. Yep Fascist ,

    I ain’t even joking sadly.

    Eg bbc and ch4 attacks

    Too loud protests

    Reeducation camps for citizens who vilify the country (government)

    Not allowed to strike

    Restrictions on degree choices

    Plus 100 others that I can’t be arsed to list ‘cause I’m so f ing angry with this lot again. (See 1979-97)
