A new coalition with the Democratic Party leaves the far-right Northern League in the cold
GIUSEPPE CONTE is poised to boldly go where no Italian technocrat has gone before. Independent prime ministers in Italy either bow out at the end of their governments or get shoved aside by the voters if they try to hang in. But on August 29th president Sergio Mattarella was expected to ask Mr Conte to form a second coalition, this time teaming the anti-establishment Five Star Movement with the centre-left Democratic Party .

They had feared that Mr Salvini’s plans for drastic tax cuts, in a country already saddled with an immense national debt , could panic the markets and jeopardise the euro. It will also delight Donald Trump, who tweeted his support for his “highly respected” buddy, “Giuseppi” .
