Meloni is flying, Salvini is flying badly, Pd and M5S are swimming. Here is the survey on the European elections

The center-right is becoming increasingly Melonian, with Fratelli d’Italia establishing itself as the leading Italian party and moving rapidly towards 30 percent; he is cannibalizing his allies, especially Matteo Salvini, who has seen the coveted double-digits slip away. This is what is revealed in the latest survey published by the Ixè institute on January 29.

If the European elections were to be voted today, Giorgia Meloni’s party would be elected by 29.6 percent of Italians, leaving the League with a “meager” 8 percent. Forza Italia holds out, confirming its 6.5 percent share in the government coalition. Noi Moderati also remained stable at a very modest 0.9 percent.

Centrists at risk of missing quorum

The opposition camp is certainly more complex; Elly Schlein’s Democratic Party holds steady at 19.1 percent. This result, which is currently far below expectations, does not, above all, eliminate the danger of a possible “overtaking” of Giuseppe Conte’s 5 Star Movement, which is in third place with 16.8 percent of the votes. It is followed by Alleanza Verdi Sinistra with 4.4 percent, Azione di Carlo Calenda with 3.6 percent, +Europa with 2.5 percent and Italia Viva with 2.2 percent. With these percentages, the centrists who once formed the “Third Pole” would not reach the necessary quorum to elect MEPs to the European Parliament. The abstention rate is still high, hovering around 43 percent.

Confidence in the government is declining, but the opposition is unconvincing

The Ixè survey records a slight decline in confidence in the Meloni government; Only 12 percent of those interviewed declare that they have a lot of trust in the executive, 30 percent say they are still satisfied, 31 have very little trust, and 27 have no trust in the executive. And if Athens cries, Sparta does not laugh: Only 3 percent have great confidence in opposing political forces, 16 percent barely support them, 51 percent say they have little confidence in them, and 29 percent reject them without objection. The data shows that even those who share nothing with the policies of the government led by Giorgia Meloni see no credible alternative on the other side of the fence.

Draghi still most popular, leading candidates in European elections rejected

In the ranking showing the leaders’ approval ratings, Mario Draghi ranks first with 53 percent, followed by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni with 43 percent, 5 Star Movement leader Giuseppe Conte with 32 percent, and Foreign Minister Giuseppe Conte with 32 percent. Elly Schlein from the Democratic Party received 24 percent of the votes, and Northern League leader Matteo Salvini received 21 percent. The view on the possible candidacy of party leaders on the lists for European elections is clear: 61.2 percent say they should not take to the field, while 33.4 percent welcome their participation in this struggle.

53 percent’s condition worsened

The assessment of the country’s health situation is bleak. The situation of 53 percent of those interviewed got worse, while the situation of 35 percent remained more or less the same; only 11 percent say they have seen improvement. This opinion is mainly due to the increase in the cost of living (57.3 percent), deterioration of health services (53.1 percent), wars (49.8 percent), increase in crime rate (32.8 percent), climate change (32.7 percent). is affected. ), slowdown in economic growth (24.5 percent), immigration (18.2 percent) and discrimination against minorities (10.2 percent).
