Across Italy, protests erupted over the weekend, with clashes between police and demonstrators in Rome, Milan, and Turin. The unrest, fueled by concerns over living costs and opposition to defense spending, allowed Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to present herself as a defender of public order. However, critics argue that her party has used the situation to accuse the left of tolerating radicals. The protests, which began under the slogan 'No Meloni Day,' reflect Italians' anxiety about making ends meet and opposition to war and rearmament. Despite high spending on pensions and healthcare, many Italians feel disadvantaged and call for cuts in spending and taxes.
