The journalists were much more numerous than the activists to wait for Giorgia Meloni, in the salons of the Roman hotel that she had chosen for headquarters in the evening of the legislative elections on Sunday, September 25. And it was in the middle of the night, at half past 2 in the morning, that the leader of the Fratelli party of Italia (post-fascist) appeared all smiles behind the desk, on the notes of the tube of the summer of 1975, my He cielo e sempre piu blu, by Rino Gaetano, who accompanied him throughout his electoral campaign.

If she plays the leading roles on the national scene for the first time, Giorgia Meloni, at 45, is already a seasoned parliamentarian. She who has been elected to the Chamber of Deputies without discontinuing since 2006 – and therefore begins her sixth term – is not unaware that after victory, the real difficulties begin.
