Daily Mail: Italy lurches to the far-Right in political earthquake: Exit poll finds 'anti-woke' Giorgia Meloni is set to win elections and become the country's first female PM as EU state braces for its most right-wing government since Mussolini 

* Giorgia Meloni, 45, who ran on a motto of 'God, country and family', will become Italy's first female PM 

* The Brothers of Italy party, headed by the one-time Mussolini supporter, had earlier led opinion polls 

* Exit poll now says the bloc of conservative parties have enough votes to control of both houses of parliament 

* It looks set to take office in a coalition with the far-right League and Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia parties 

An exit poll has found Giorgia Meloni is set to win Italy's elections and become the country's first female Prime Minister as it braces for its most right-wing government since Mussolini. 

The poll for state broadcaster RAI said Meloni's Brothers of Italy, in alliance Matteo Salvini's League and Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia party, has won between 41 per cent and 45 per cent of the vote. 

Despite Salvini's and Berlusconi's parties lagging behind, between them the Conservative bloc appear to have enough seats to secure a majority in both houses of parliament.
