Vita (lit. 'Life') is an Italian electoral list which ran in the 2022 general election. It is led by Sara Cunial, a member of the Chamber of Deputies and former member of the Five Star Movement (M5S). The list includes anti-vaccine, anti-5G, anti-immigration and anti-gender movements, such as R2020, 3V Movement, No Fear Day, Sentinels of the Constitution - I'm with the Lawyer Polacco, The Italian People, People of Mothers, Italian Alliance Stop 5G, Popular Union for Free Italy and ENZIAN-Südtirol.[1][2]
The founders describe the list as "a new open and inclusive political and social community",[3] and "a list of those who, in these two years, have stood firm, loyal and courageous against the techno-sanitary dictatorship and the restriction of our natural and constitutional rights."[4]
History
[edit]At the end of July, the program of the list was published, among the points of which are: rejection of the green pass, freedom of information, alternative forms of education, constitutional freedoms, restoration of national sovereignty and freedom of business.[5]
On 1 August, a press conference was held on the submission of a unitary list.[3] After reaching the 36,000 signatures required for running, the list participated in the 2022 general election, obtaining about 0.7% of the votes.[6]
Many members, dissatisfied with the results, left the list.[7]
The list gained its first elected representative at the regional/provincial level in the 2023 South Tyrolean provincial election, obtaining 2.6% of the votes and electing lawyer Renate Holzeisen to the provincial parliament.
