New representative poll: 95% of South-Tyroleans don't feel Italian

[Svanhild]

Almost 90 years after the annexation of Südtirol by Italy, Südtiroler citizens remain to feel independent. 95% of the population and 90% of the youth don't feel Italian. Largest refusal to be considered as Italian can be found in Pustertal, Vinschgau and Wipptal.

I couldn't find any information about the sample size or polling methods, nor about who conducted the poll to begin with. That puts the whole thing into question.

It wouldn't shock me if the numbers are accurate, though.
