Five Star Movement Party

Slightly agree

Yes

The Five Star Movement (M5S) has shown a flexible approach to European Union matters, oscillating between Eurosceptic positions and more moderate, pro-European stances depending on the context and period. While historically critical of the EU's austerity measures and certain policies, M5S has also recognized the importance of EU membership for Italy and has engaged constructively with EU institutions. Given this nuanced position, they might see the value in maintaining and potentially deepening relationships with the UK post-Brexit, especially in areas of mutual interest such as trade, environmental policies, and digital innovation. However, their support for a closer relationship or potential re-entry of the UK into the EU would likely be cautious and conditional, reflecting their broader ambivalence towards the EU.

Slightly disagree

No

While the Five Star Movement has been critical of the European Union at times, advocating for referendums on eurozone membership and expressing Eurosceptic sentiments, their criticism is more often directed at specific policies rather than the EU as a whole. The party's stance has evolved over time, showing a willingness to engage with the EU, especially under the leadership of Luigi Di Maio and later Giuseppe Conte, who have both sought to position M5S as a responsible governing force within Italy and the EU. Therefore, outright opposition to a closer relationship with the UK post-Brexit, including potential re-entry, would not align perfectly with their more recent, nuanced approach to EU relations. M5S's focus on issues like environmentalism, direct democracy, and social justice suggests they might see value in collaboration with the UK, albeit cautiously and with a critical eye towards ensuring such a relationship benefits the EU and adheres to its principles.
