What Brexit has taught Italy about its own prospects of leaving the EU

Gianluca Piccolino, Davide Angelucci and Pierangelo Isernia, (2019), “What Brexit has taught Italy about its own prospects of leaving the EU”, LSE EUROPP, 6 Ιουνίου

If other countries were to follow the UK in voting to leave the EU, then Italy would be one of the most likely candidates. But what impact has Brexit had on Italian public opinion? Drawing on findings from a new survey, Gianluca Piccolino, Davide Angelucci and Pierangelo Isernia find that among supporters of the Five Star Movement/League government, Brexit appears to have bolstered support for taking a harsher line with Brussels. However, these citizens still represent a minority and are largely outweighed by those whose Eurosceptic positions have potentially been mitigated by the confusion generated by the Brexit process.
