Renzi: "Making reforms at any cost" – The City of Salerno

ROME. “Come on reforms, whatever the cost. The Italicum change in the Senate. ” On the day that the Committee on the Rules of Palazzo Madama establishes a majority (10 votes in favor, 4 against) that is “legitimate” use of the “kangaroo” for constitutional laws and Pietro Grasso promises that the technique that antiostruzionistica allows you to invalidate similar amendments will be applied with “common sense.” And Matteo Renzi makes it clear that the electoral law will be introduced preferences while cashing in on the first, decisive, go ahead to the unelected Senate. The Hall of the Palazzo Madama in fact rejected an amendment of Augustus Minzolini that re-proposed the perfect bicameralism and the election of the Senate by universal suffrage. The yes were 117 (of which 14 dissidents of the Democratic Party, 15 Frondeurs of LAN, 8 Gal, 2 and 3 of Pi Ncd), the no 171 and 8 abstentions. Forza Italy voted against the proposal Minzolini along with the majority (Pd, Ncd, Sc, Pi) and the covenant of the Nazarene was another obstacle overcome.

But the former director of Tg1 shows satisfied “The political fact is that the majority of the reforms Renzi and do not have the two-thirds. And we will demand the referendum. “

Voting continued yesterday in an atmosphere of great tension. An amendment which proposed the abolition of the Senate has been rejected by the votes of a majority of the protests of the opposition, which wants to keep the Senate elective but yesterday voted in favor of its abolition. The technique of “kangaroo”, which according to the rules can not be used even in the House, has also been applied to an amendment of Sel (reducing the number of MPs) who was rejected and has forfeited 38 other similar amendments. But it is not finite. The majority said no to the amendments “a joke”, asking to rename the Senate in several ways: Gilda, Diet of the elect, national Curia, bule.

The majority pulls straight and thanks to the “kangaroo” (yesterday it was brought to one of a stuffed animal in the classroom) has “jumped” 450 amendments in the afternoon. The roadmap is respected and Renzi repeated that it will not retreat an inch. “Reforms are not the whim of an authoritarian prime minister. But the only way to get out of Italy by the preservation of the swamp. I do not leave the future to resign. Approve the reform at first reading, despite the screams and insults of those hours, “said the premier, who makes a public tribute to the senators who undergo the filibuster” a small part of their colleagues’ and are proving “the sense of the institutions more extraordinary that you could ask for. ” Then, in a tweet, he added: “While they have run out of time, we have not finished your patience. Thanks to the senators who are supporting this reform. ” But the prime minister also spoke of the electoral law. And to those who deny the blocked lists understand that coming soon preferences. “Electoral Law of Mayors: a winner – possibly with the ballot – which has the numbers to govern. The Italicum goes in this direction. It has already been approved in the House. It will be amended by the Senate and become law definitively. ” Renzi is preparing to talk with Berlusconi? The Vice-President of the Chamber, Luigi Di Maio (M5S), try to “override” the leader of Forza Italia and aims to establish a direct channel with the premier. “Renzi wants there to be a government that governments immediately and we grant him accepting the law according to the auditors: proportional and first-round runoff between the top two finishers (and not between the two coalitions ed.) In return, we ask for the introduction of preferences and the exclusion from the Parliament of the condemned. “
