Italian Rightist Victory

Meloni – now the hard work begins.

See this. Winning obviously is not enough.  The Italian Right needs to avoid infighting and fracturing of their coalitions and, most of all, they need to govern effectively. They cannot mimic Trump and squander their opportunity, merely replacing Trump’s Big Macs with Italian pasta.

I would advise first governing according to the limits of practical Italian politics – stretched to the limit of course – and according to the issues and platforms of the campaign. There must be a crackdown on illegal immigration and if possible a reduction in legal immigration. It is important to get the economy on track, focus on quality of life issues, law and order, etc. Foreign policy should include collaboration with other right-wing governments and parties of like mind throughout Europe. 

Once the Italian Right has proven the ability to govern effectively, and has solidified and increased their base of support in the population – and especially the electorate – and continued political power is assured, more ambitious activity can be attempted.  This can include, for example: eliminating legal immigration as well of course zero illegal immigration, incentives for the repatriation of alien elements, incentives for native (and only native) family formation and reproduction, overturning “hate speech” laws and other restrictions on speech and political activity, rethinking EU membership, rethinking treaties on refugees, rethinking the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and considering a nuclear military, nuclear power for domestic energy production, ruthless law and order including a crackdown on organized crime, shifting rules to make it easier for the Right to maintain power, legal prosecution of those who aid attempts at continued illegal immigration, and more aggressive alliances with other hard right elements in Europe and in the European Diaspora).  Rightist governments in Europe should - while ostensibly staying in the EU (and getting Far Right representation in the EU) - build an alternative alliance, an alternative union. And as the EU gets weaker and weaker, this alternative can become stronger and stronger, until the day comes that the EU can be replaced by the alternative.
