A shot that lightly wounded a man at a New Year's Eve party has prompted an angry political response after it emerged it was fired from a gun owned by an Italian far-right MP.
In fact from Italy’s Meloni to France’s Le Pen, to Geert Wilders’ popularity in the Netherlands and Austria and Hungary’s increasing public support to the right-wing politicians on the rise, the recent developments point to the wave of right-wing and Islamophobic politics overtaking Europe.
Sunak paid Meloni the highest compliment a Tory is capable of giving, comparing her with Margaret Thatcher, who also set out to “revive her country both domestically and on the international stage” and “never shied away from the hard choices and the big issues.”
Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni was recorded saying there was a lot of fatigue over the war in Ukraine during a prank call with Russian comedians.
