Italy’s current government is led by the Brothers of Italy party, which has roots in post-war fascism.
Its leader, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, has said her movement has completely changed and that it is clear her politics are not those of the people raising their arms in Milan.
But some fear she and her party have not moved far enough away from their political origins and that what was once considered the extreme is becoming mainstream.
Ms Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party bears the same three-coloured flame logo adopted by neo-fascist groupings after the second world war, but she has progressively shifted her movement away from the far right.
BBC’s Mark Lowen looks into the world of neo-fascism in Italy for BBC InDepth.

You know, Far Right Fascism & Far Left Socialists are both Nationalists in differect approach. So being in government will be moderates.
In other words, it was happening across the world sonce then.
Fascism is evil, nothing more! If you study history you will understand this.
First, define fascism. I see many people who have no clear idea. And if one can't see what fascism is today, and what it has always "really" been, we have a problem.
I thought this was legit then I saw it was the BBC. 😂
Capirai ci parlate proprio voi, gli inglesi 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You really have nothing better to do? With Farage & co (and your criminal colonial past…ask any natives of your ex colonies…) , i dont think you should worry about today's Italy…
Pode ver a minoria e do país o restante e td mulçumanos deus ulivre.
Hail USTASE
It is important to note that this kind of celebrations has always been held regardless of the government being left or right leaning.
It's called freedom of thought, and we all have to accept the downsides.
In fact there's plenty of communists and noone is startled by that.
I see bad journalism here.
1) No real percentage of the so-called fascists over the population.
2)No real interview with any member, no real investigation in the belief of this people.
BBC, stick to your comfortzone: wildlife documentary.
FAKE
12:05 the MSI (former fascists first party) – as a part of the italian parliamebt – did indeed try to support an italian government in the early 60s, but the socialists and communists violently revolted, and so the main party bargained to preserve the peace and exclude civil war.
this "silent majority" explains Italy's automatic antipathy with respect to Israel. Melloni hasn't said a word to condemn Hamas. Most media speaks ill of Israel. Disgusting.
Come e' possibile essere Fascista ed essere in lega con i Russi Comunisti? Che puttanata!!!!!
Disgraceful
Don't worry BBC ,we have plenty free place in Piazzale Loreto…
Lazio fans.
These stories are continually put out by the left. They must put fear into the people so that their crazy ideology will be accepted. Before you call someone who is conservative a facist understand what road lead people to defend themselves from crazy liberal rhetoric. I am from
Italy and I must say this video is highly exaggerated.
Un branco di rincoglioniti sia a dx che a sx …..il fascismo e il comunismo sono finiti nei libri di storia , oggi comanda il capitalismo
Defend Europa

The history repeats!
Lied + Propaganda never changed the truth,,, Not Far-Right,, The Right of people who be taxpayers
Pe maneliști nu-i mai vede nimeni 😂😂😂❤
Ucraina si e Italia no? mavafanculo BBC
No, you are not – you are just a Fascism not a revolutionary. Fascism is reactionary not revolutionary.
"Allow"? Freedom means everyone is allowed to speak, not just liberals and Communists.
The axis of evil: Italy, America, Russia
FORZA NAPOLI (pensiero più complesso mai osservato)
bah, partisan news report, just another slip of bbc
There is hope for Europe.
Old demons come back : human beings are so ridiculous, the end is not far now
FASCISTI IN ITALIA,NAZISTI IN AMERICA ,QUESTA FECCIA SCHIFOSA È TORNATA PERCHE DIO NON ESISTE.
To most of the italians it will become clear that they became fascist when they will lose the next world war. So finely upgraded system of convincing people. It's a dr. Jeckill and Mr. Hyde story.
😊europa dos europeus
And what's wrong with Fascism? Hitler was a National Socialist, so don't even try to tell me 'Fascism is what angry German man was'. But seriously, what's wrong with Fascism? Because of state control? State control is found in Communist ideologies, yet I see no critics of it, at least not on this level.
History is written by the victors, Sir. Winston Churchill. The National Socialism or Fascism creation and origin, really comes from the abuse, greed and inhumanity from Communism and the Zionism bankers. Which were the ones who really helped to destroy Germany, part of Europe and made possible the rise of the Third Reich which really hate was against the International Communism and Zionism bankers abuse, degradation and humiliation against the German nation, people and the rest of Europe, since WW1. The truth exists. Only the lies are invented, Georges Braque.
wimpy guy needs AI to get organized – not a good selling point
Siamo nella 💩 totale
If comminism is legal why fascism shouldn't be ? I'm pretty sure more than 90 percent of brits don't know the difference between fascism and racism
Why do they ban the fascist? Erasing history? Then comunism sould be banned too.
Italie will always be a ficist country were The Mafia will be there!!Selling Christianity to the Nazis😂😂😂😂😂😂
Uk should learn from Italy, instead of keeping muslims rapers of innocent girls
To the bbc sycophant, what does he thinks about the internment of thousands of japanese-americans in concentration camps during all the war?
