Italy’s parliament on Tuesday approved a law that introduces femicide into the country’s criminal law and punishes it with life in prison.
The vote coincided with the international day for the elimination of violence against women, a day designated by the U.N. General Assembly.
The law won bipartisan support from the center-right majority and the center-left opposition in the final vote in the Lower Chamber, passing with 237 votes in favor.
The law, backed by the conservative government of Premier Giorgia Meloni, comes in response to a series of killings and other violence targeting women in Italy. It includes stronger measures against gender-based crimes including stalking and revenge porn.

Setting up for a string of “not real women” court cases? Enshrining that gay and lesbian victims don’t get the same justice het women will?
Can’t wait for crickets when a clearly discriminatory law ends up being a tool for discrimination.
She was democratically elected. Not charged or convicted of any crimes. No pedophilia. She implemented a new tax on banks and insurance worth 11 billion euro.
Aside from fucking Elon Musk, she’s been pretty effective.
Do you have brain damage? She’s still a fascist.
