Prime minister Matteo Renzi had proposed to reform the Italian parliament to make it easier to make political decisions. He wanted to halve the senate, which is considered to be a major stumbling block for decision-making.
But it was victory for the no side in the referendum yesterday. A convincing victory with almost 60 per cent for ‘ no ‘ and just over 40 per cent for yes.
Matteo Renzi says he will gather his ministers today and then submit her resignation to president Mattarella.
He says that it is his loss and he takes the consequences and depart.
On the ‘ no ‘side, it is many people want to proclaim themselves as the winner by now – but, above all, is the result of the referendum a powerful’ no ‘ from a wide range of italians that believe that there were too many uncertainties to centralize power and implement changes in the way that Renzi wanted to do.
The power show not the least voter turnout of 68 per cent – which has not been higher at any other referendum in late 1993.
it is Now up to president Sergio Mattarella to take the next step. It can be to dissolve parliament and call an early presidential election, but it is more likely that he gives the mission to lead a technical government – if there is support for it in parliament to Renzi himself or any of his colleagues.
first of all, the parliament needs to devise a new electoral law, because the work is not finished.
Femstjärnerörelsen is Italy’s second largest party would love to have new elections and that even the Lega Nord at the far right. In both parties, there is a EUROPEAN-criticism.
That the prime minister resigns makes Italy politically unstable and they may most likely consequences for how the market and the EU react today.
