Supporters of Italy’s 5-Star Movement have resoundingly backed its leader Luigi Di Maio to carry on following a bruising defeat in the European parliamentary elections.

Di Maio got the backing of 80% of the 56,127 5-Star members who took part in the confidence vote on the party’s online platform known as Rousseau, the movement said on its blog.
