Law professor Gisueppe Conte remains the premier candidate of Italy's possible new government despite doubts about his CV, League leader Matteo Salvini and 5-Star Movement (M5S) leader Luigi Di Maio have said. Asked if there had been a rethink, Salvini said "No". He also reiterated that he would not accept Di Maio taking over as premier.
Doubts have also reportedly been raised about whether veteran Euroskeptic economist Paolo Savona is suitable to be the economy minister of an eventual M5S-Legaue government.
