The no to the third mandate for the prime ministership
"I believe is more a move
by those who do not want the third mandate
: there is a game by Fdi in not wanting to give us the third mandate for the governors. This is the explanation".
The leader of the League in the Chamber , Riccardo Molinari
, said this
on Start on SkyTg24.
"We - he observed - have already obtained an important result" with the approval of "a law on which we have been working for some time which removes the limit of mandates in municipalities under 5 thousand inhabitants and extends it to 3 to 15 thousand.
It is clear that we would also like to apply the same principle to larger municipalities and regions".
"We - continued Molinari - believe that even the mayors of the most important cities and the regional presidents can have three mandates. Also because everyone praises the system of direct election of the mayor, because it is the most direct relationship between the vote and the citizen, there is a democratic control of the electoral base on the mayor's work and it is the citizens who decide whether someone has worked well or badly. The fact that there are three mandates - he concludes - does not jeopardize the security of the institutions".
"We are not in favor of extending the mandate of governors who have already had two mandates. We believe it is right" that there are "two mandates" and "it is not a question that concerns the League" but it is "for the protection of democracy and a guarantee of alternation", said FI leader Antonio Tajani when asked about a League amendment to the elections decree.
