Italians have given us chance to govern - FdI House whip

(see related) (ANSA) - ROME, SEP 26 - Francesco Lollobrigida, the Lower House whip for Giorgia Meloni's right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party, said that the initial results from Sunday's election suggest the centre-right coalition will be able to form a government with a strong majority in parliament. "We wanted to take power with the chance to be able to govern and what emerges from the initial data is that the Italian people have given us this opportunity," he said.
    "Giorgia Meloni proved herself to be courageous, loyal and serious when leading a constructive, patriotic opposition and I think this is the line that we will continue to apply in government.
    "If confirmed, the figures give the centre right a large majority.
    "So we think that we can show the Italian people that we deserve an experience in government". (ANSA).
