There is actually a lot there that'd I support. Credit to them for supporting gay marriage four years ago, when Italy doesn't even have it yet.
Would they take Italy out of the European Union?

They're not like Le Pen, they don't have an official political orientation, however inside it there are people who have different orientations and views.
They supported gay marriage but they didn't vote in favor of civil unions this year, and that was a major let down for gay community here in Italy.
They gave a motivation that it's too hard to explain in english but it basically sounded like an excuse, their priority was basically keep doing opposition instead of supporting the LGBT community.
They lost a lot of credibility with this move.
I don't think so, about that they always said that they would let italian people decide with a referendum, but in the last times they often said that they have changed their mind about it in general.
Majority of italian people (both young and old, and from different political orientations) know the high risks and the economical mess of going out from Europe and it's not gonna happen, Italy will never go out from EU.
