After the honeymoon after the elections, the government is going through a delicate phase with the budget law to be approved by the end of the year and all the efforts of Giorgia Meloni’s executive and the center-right majority are focused on getting the goal right. At a time like this, it is quite understandable that, in recent polls, confidence in Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is on the wane. According to the survey by Roberto Baldassari, general manager of Lab21.01, for Affaritaliani.it released on Sunday, December 18, the prime minister’s consensus drops slightly and drops to 53.6%, in any case the majority.
Interesting data comes from trusting individual ministers. The most loved by Italians in the Meloni government is Giancarlo Giorgetti, head of the Economy, with 56%. In second place we find Defense Minister Guido Crosetto, who in recent days has strongly criticized the ECB’s monetary policy, with 54%. In third place is a trio formed by Raffaele Fitto, Andrea Abodi and Antonio Tajani (53%). Matteo Salvini grows, like his party, in fourth place with 52%. Italian Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi (51%) also rises in the consensus of Italians, an advocate of hardliners with NGOs and migrant smugglers.
Moving on to the holidays, the Italy Brothers are down and down and down 29%, the League is up as mentioned, up again and up almost 9%. Countertrend signs in the center-left galaxy, with the Democratic Party registering a slight recovery and standing at 15.9% while the 5 Star Movement of Giuseppe Conte, after the increase in consensus with the battle for basic income, retreats to 17.9% . The third pole formed by Action by Carlo Calenda and Italia Viva by Matteo Renzi is at 8.3%, registering a positive sign in relation to the last survey.
