Il Fatto Quotidiano

New Italian political polls reported by Il Fatto Quotidiano indicate support falling for both Lega and Forza Italia, while General Roberto Vannacci's presence fails to lift the right-wing bloc's overall standing. The numbers fuel debate over the centre-right's trajectory and whether Vannacci can translate his personal popularity into electoral gains for the coalition.

Centre-right leaders are meeting to choose a joint candidate for the upcoming Milan municipal elections, but remain divided. Forza Italia and Fratelli d'Italia are pushing for Matteo Perego, while the Lega and Maurizio Lupi resist. Other names in play include Silvia Sardone and Lupi himself, with only one candidate set to face the centre-left.
