The center-right government continues to work on constitutional reforms to change Italy’s legal system. While waiting for the meeting between minister Maria Elisabetta Alberti Casellati and the unions, which will take place tomorrow, Affari Italiani revealed the path that Giorgia Meloni intends to follow. “For now it is virtually certain that there will be no presidentialism but the government and the prime minister have chosen the premiership, or rather the direct choice of the prime minister’s voters” indiscretion after months of studying the reforms.
This option finds favor with Azione and Italia Viva and “qualified sources of the majority are convinced that, in the end, a convergence with the Democratic Party and the 5 Star Movement is not excluded to avoid the referendum”, which would only be induced if the The center-right, which wants to give greater political stability to the country, did not obtain a large majority in the double vote in the Chamber and in the double vote in the Senate. In particular, there is a request from the League, which wants a reform that provides for constructive trust: in case of resignation or fall of the prime minister, the replacement can be chosen by the same majority voted at the polls. Nobody in the centre-right wants a close battle with the opposition, also to avoid ending up like Matteo Renzi in 2016 and therefore some articles of the second part of the constitution will be changed.
