Italy heads for a hung Parliament after voters backed Right-Wing and populist parties

Italy is on course for a hung in Parliament after voters backed right-wing and populist parties.

Projections based on partial results suggest the Eurosceptic, anti-establishment Five Star Movement has won the lion's share of the vote. 

But  former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's right-wing coalition, which includes the far-right League, looks set to win  most seats in the lower House of Parliament.

Forming a government may now take weeks of negotiation and coalition-building. 

Alternatively, fresh elections could be held in a bid to produce a more decisive result, though there is no guarantee that would happen.
