Italian’s are happy to share their opinions and a poll published on Saturday shows the deepening divide between support for the right-wing League and its coalition partner the 5Star Movement.

The Ipsos poll published the telling results. The League, headed by the internationally popular Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, has jumped to 34.7 per cent of Italians saying they would vote for the League.

In March, they received 17.4 per cent of the votes. Since the election, polls have shown Matteo to be rising in popularity as he has publicly stood against mass migration and has stood up for the Italian people in the row between Brussels and Rome, having recently been polled as the most popular politician in Italy’s history.

The 5Stars only received 28.7 per cent of support, which is down from the 32.7 per cent that voted for them in March’s election.

This new poll also shows the League is, to an increasing extent, enticing voters away from its coalition partner. With 16 per cent of those who said they would now back the anti-migration League having voted in the March election for the 5Stars.

The coalition government as a whole received 57 per cent of Italians approval of the government, the highest level of support of any of the previous six Italian governments during similar periods.
