Italy: Election Gains For Anti-Establishment Parties

BBC World Service - Newshour, Italy: Election Gains For Anti-Establishment Parties

A Eurosceptic movement and a right-wing coalition claim they have the "right to govern"

A Eurosceptic movement and a right-wing coalition both claim they have the "right to govern".

The leaders of two anti-establishment parties in Italy have set out separate claims to lead the country. The Five Star Movement and a right-wing grouping including the anti-immigrant League both made strong gains in elections on Sunday, but neither bloc has an outright majority. 

Also in the programme: Zimbabwe's tourism minister talks to Newshour about the legacy of Robert Mugabe; and who is the Syrian general at the forefront of the government's assault on the rebel-held enclave of Eastern Ghouta?
