Right-wing coalition has flipped Italian regions in 5/6 elections this year, with Calabria (the "toe" of Southern Italy) up next in December. The right has overperformed their polling in almost all of them and dominated last night in Umbria, once known as a stronghold of the left pic.twitter.com/iKOQMNKRMm

More good news from Europe:
“ROME — After half a century of left-wing rule, the central Italian region of Umbria voted for a regional government spearheaded by Matteo Salvini’s far-right League.
Donatella Tesei of the League, backed by the far-right Brothers of Italy and Silvio Berlusconi’s Forza Italia, won 57.5 percent of Sunday’s vote. Vincenzo Bianconi, who was supported by the two parties that govern on the national level, the Democratic Party (PD) and the 5Star Movement, won just over 37 percent.
As the scale of the League’s victory became apparent Sunday night, Salvini told reporters: “We are writing history here tonight.”
The result is a major blow to the PD-5Stars government, whose formation two months ago removed the League from power. The Umbria election was the first time the two new allies ever jointly backed a candidate and the first time their tie-up was tested through a vote. …
While Umbria only has 700,000 voters, it has long been one of Italy’s left-wing strongholds and had only ever been governed by Communists, the left or the center left. …”
All is not lost in Italy.
RIght, but Italy has beeen the door opener for #nigration to Europe for more than ten years now, up to 2 million niggers flowing in every year!
So Italy can elect any government they want for me, there is no way that will ever pay back that mistake.
Pez,
Put the blame when it belongs:Zog!
JewSA and Jew Kay intelligent services and military forces overthrew Gadaffi’s regime in Libya which led to the mud flood into Europe from the south.
Greece and Italy being E.U. members were thwarted in blocking the migrants from entering Europe by parliamentarians in Brussels controlled by das juden. Between constant manipulation by the (((media))) showing dead children washing ashore amongst other appeals to emotion.
Countries in Northern and Western Europe should have sent navy vessels to stem the endless tide of illegal immigrants from Africa. To blame Italy alone for allowing the invaders into Europe is fallacious.
If you need to blame somebody, put the finger politicians that did nothing to repel the flow of sub-Saharan enrichment’ and the voters that kept reelecting them.
It appears only the Italians and Slavs have the will to survive. Great Britain and Scandinavia are the worst.
It’s a shame because we really do feel horrible for our Northern and Western European brothers and sisters but at some point they are going to be forced to wake up hopefully they do sooner rather than later.
It’s always great to hear good news from my brothers across the Adriatic.
I bet Angelo Gage is pounding a few Peroni’s about now.
Salvini seems pretty close to the no-shit leader we’re looking for. Pure guts, none of the salesman buffoonery of Trump or Farage.
Jannie,
As far as living leaders, Salvini isn’t awful, but the leader we need died in April of 1945.
Brava, Italia!
I wouldn’t read too much into this, it means they want to ship more immigrants to the US instead of Italy. LOL. When they start talking about taking Italians back, now that will be another story. Like come home wops. LOL.
The term wop came from Italian immigrants to the US being “with out papers”, thus the acronym wop.
