Summary Italy's LGBT community concerned by election resultFears government will only promote 'traditional' valuesRight promises not to roll back rightsROME, Sept 27 (Reuters) - The LGBT community has "very real fears" after a conservative bloc dominated by the far-right won Italy's general election, a leading gay rights campaigner told Reuters. "Unfortunately there are very real fears" about an erosion of civil rights under the new administration, Fabrizio Marrazzo of the Gay Party said. "The League and partly Brothers of Italy have in their manifestos things that are quite negative for our community, like stressing the importance of protecting only the traditional family," Marrazzo said. She presents herself as a defender of Christian values and an enemy of what she calls "gender ideology" and the "LGBT lobby". Leader of Brothers of Italy Giorgia Meloni speaks at the party's election night headquarters, in Rome, Italy September 26, 2022.
