Green light to the six referendums on Justice, promoted by the Lega and the Radical Party. The Supreme Court of Cassation established it, announces the League, accepting the request of the regional councils of Basilicata, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Liguria, Lombardy, Piedmont, Sardinia, Sicily, Umbria, Veneto. The decision of Piazza Cavour anticipates – and in fact makes it irrelevant – the deposit of certified signatures: between 700 thousand and 775 thousand depending on the question, in addition to 18 thousand electronic subscriptions. The provisional total is 4,275,000 autographs, but this morning another 80,000 arrived at the Milan headquarters of the Lega in via Bellerio.
“Thanks! The Supreme Court has given the green light to the six #ReferendumGiustizia. Finally the Italians will have the opportunity to change the Justice! Appointment in the spring. Thanks to those who signed, to those who were present at the gazebos and squares, to those who helped from North to South. The team wins, friends ». Thus on Facebook the leader of the League, Matteo Salvini, greeted the approval of the referendum on Justice promoted by his party.
Who signed in favor
Matteo Salvini’s party has prepared the certified signatures after months of careful checks – reads a note – which saw the mobilization of dozens of parliamentarians, regional councilors and dozens of militants from August 15th to today with the coordination of Roberto Calderoli. The forms with the signatures were distributed in 368 boxes that filled three vans. There are also six hard drives that contain digital signatures and electoral certificates.
The referendums have received bipartisan support and have mobilized many well-known faces. Among others, the questions were supported by Pierluigi Battista, Maurizio Belpietro, Giulia Bongiorno, Hoara Borselli, Mauro Corona, Mauro Coruzzi aka Platinette, chef Alessandro Circiello, Guido Crosetto, Paolo Del Debbio, Alda D’Eusanio, Vittorio Feltri, Roberto Giachetti, Mario Giordano, Maria Giovanna Maglie, Simonetta Matone, Paolo Mieli, Giovanni Minoli, Augusto Minzolini, Luca Palamara, David Parenzo, Nicola Porro, Gabriella Privitera Corona mother of Fabrizio, Alessandro Sallusti, Vittorio Sgarbi, Sergio Staino, Francesco Storace, Giovanni Terzi, Gaia Tortora, Michele Vietti former vice president of the CSM. Despite Enrico Letta’s no, Goffredo Bettini, Giorgio Gori, Luciano Pizzetti (deputy for the Democratic Party and undersecretary of state with the Gentiloni and Renzi governments) said yes in the Democratic Party, without forgetting other names such as those of Senator Gianni Pittella, former socialist, and Massimo Smeriglio MEP. Support for the referendums was reiterated by Silvio Berlusconi and Giorgia Meloni (albeit with some distinctions on a couple of questions). The centrists of the UDC also joined, with Lorenzo Cesa and Antonio de Poli, and the leader of Italia Viva Matteo Renzi.
In particular, the referendums concern the reform of the CSM, the direct responsibility of the judges, the fair evaluation of the judges, the separation of careers, the limits to the abuses of pre-trial detention, the abolition of the Severino decree. But after the green light of the Supreme Court, as mentioned, it is no longer necessary to deposit the signatures scheduled for tomorrow.
