Referendum, Zingaretti, soon Pd position

(ANSA) - ASCOLI PICENO, AUGUST 24 - "In a few days we will make the national leadership of the Democratic Party to take an orientation" regarding the referendum on the cut of parliamentarians, but in the meantime the secretary of the Democratic Party Nicola Zingaretti renews "the appeal to the majority because the problem is not of the Democratic Party, but of the majority that supports the government. We have decided one year ago to proceed with the cut of the parliamentarians and at the same time make regulatory changes to strengthen this aspect. This does not happen, it is not a problem of the Democratic Party that asked for it, but of the whole majority. And I trust that President Conte and the entire majority understand that this is a topic to be addressed ". "Ame is frankly pleased - said Zingaretti in Ascoli Piceno - that awareness of the reform project is now growing in the country, started with the cut of parliamentarians, which also coincides with a defense of democratic institutions; this is our concern and I say it because I was at the tables in August last year when a government program was being made ".
