    The government in Italy is about to fall

    Yes, but it’s Italy :)

    It’s news when Italy has a stable and functioning gıvernment.

      Sure, Italy is highly volatile, but we’re also seeing problems across Europe. Bojo is out in UK, Macron’s party failed in parliamentary elections. Estonian government collapsed. These are just a few examples. Given what’s projected economically for Europe going forward, I’d be shocked if social and political unrest didn’t spread across Europe as a whole.

        If you’ll allow me to object again, BoJo out is probably good for Europe and the West in general.

        But agree on the general premise. Europe made a big mistake by following America to war.

          I certainly do think Bojo was an utter clown, but there isn’t anybody likely to replace him who’d do anything different going forward. Corbyn was the only sane voice and he was ultimately sidelined.

          Europe needs politicians that prioritize the interests of the people in Europe as opposed to being subservient to US geopolitical machinations.
