Viva La Meloni: The Reign of the Far Right

Jan 6, 2025 | Report by Valérie Dupont, produced by RTS Radio Télévision Suisse

Italy ranks 46th worldwide for press freedom. The only European country on the list, Giorgia Méloni's Italy has no love for the press, not for progressive individual rights for migrant or LGBT people. Her direct communication via social networks highlights her ideological and societal battles, which perfectly fit the conservative tones of her tagline "God, Fatherland and Family".



Fascism is gaining ground right across Europe and right across America, too, alas. People never learn from the mistakes of the past. Regarding Italy, Giorgia Meloni hates gays, it seems. But this is to be expected, of course. After all, she is such a good Christian. The exemplar extraordinaire. – © Mark Alexander
