The Apulian governor Michele Emiliano said this. Emiliano: "It was not essential for the M5S to leave the council to reaffirm our common beliefs" "The other parties and members of our coalition are also aligned for legality," he said.
"This is the sign that the line to follow is clear to everyone, inside and outside the institutions," Emiliano added. "We need to further strengthen and give new impetus to what has already been achieved in recent years in terms of anti-corruption, supervision, anti-mafia and prevention," said Emiliano. The Apulians are expected to vote in a general election on November 26. The election will be held on a free and fair basis, with the result expected to be announced on December 1. The vote will be followed by a referendum on whether or not to extend the powers of the National Council of the Regions. The current term of the NRC runs until the end of next year, with an option to extend it to a further two years.
