Expect the Eurozone to go bananas over Italy’s election

I’ve been hearing disturbing but well-informed voices about the result of the election in Italy, the Eurozone’s third biggest economy, which if correct will cause the global liberal elite to go ape and try to section Italy. The result which such voices are predicting will have a similarly disturbing effect on global libertarian conservatives. As for the markets, they will go bananas.

Here’s what these voices are saying. The anti-party Movimento Cinque Stelle (M5S) which is run like a Scientology sect and would if it got the chance replace Parliament with direct democracy on the internet will get many more votes than suggested in the last opinion polls before Italy’s poll black-out two weeks before election day. According to those last polls the M5S would get 27 per cent of the vote and be the top party though behind the Coalition of the Right comprising Silvio Berlusconi’s centre-right Forza Italia (16 per cent), Matteo Salvini’s populist right Lega (14 per cent) and Giorgia Meloni’s post-fascist Fratelli d’Italia (5 per cent) plus a small centrist party which together were polling 37 per cent.
