I think that the tone changed since the election of Meloni. It shifted from being focused on βinvasionβ and critical of government inaction to one focused on Meloni trying to do something but being prevented by others. I donβt live in Italy anymore but this is my perception observing from the UK.

To add to the above, AS Roma lost the Europa League final in 2023, Juve was in the semifinals the same here. AC Milan lost the CL semifinal against Inter. I also think that since the start of the Conference thereβs always been an Italian team in the final. That said, agree serie A is not great.

A chart showing population proportions by age group in London and the rest of England for 2023. It shows that London has a younger population compared to the rest of England, which has a higher proportion of older age groups.
*The age of Londonβs population β how itβs changing & what this tells us*
Londonβs population is in general younger than the rest of England
This is largely because of the huge number of young adults in the capital.
1 in 3 Londoners are 20-40 y/o, compared to just 1 in 5 in the rest of England...
