Benito Mussolini's granddaughter, 62, has always been active in right-wing circles, although in recent times she has expressed herself in favor of LGBT rights and the approval of the Zan bill. She began her political career in the 1990s, first in the ranks of the MSI and then of AN. After breaking up with Gianfranco Fini, she founded the party Azione Sociale, then definitively moving to Forza Italia and being elected several times as a deputy, senator and member of parliament in Strasbourg.
