ROME ¨C Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni¡¯s government is increasingly unpopular among young voters, opinion polls show, a trend that could prove costly ahead of a national election due next year.
Since taking office in 2022, Meloni has done little on the economic front to increase opportunities for the young, analysts say, while passing a raft of law-and-order measures that often disproportionately affect them.
The result is a disaffection among 18- to 34-year-olds who may be crucial in?a 2027 election shaping up as a neck-and-neck race between her right-wing coalition ?and the center-left opposition.
