Referendum without quorum, the supporters of the yes in Parma: “Match to learn weapons, but there has been awareness” – The Republic

In Parma and Parma data to the influx referendum on drilling mirror those national. With 32 percent of voters, the quorum is far: he won the front of the abstention, supported by the President of Matteo Renzi advice. Even in local politics there is who had sided openly for yes , and that today reflects the outcome.

The NATIONAL DATA

the leader of 5 stars for city council, Mark Bosi , said that “unfortunately, this result is not the son of the referendum campaign on the question of the drills, but years and years in which politics has worked to stave people from voting – states – this time it was done so blatant. the data on the participation of Parma is very close to that of the last regional elections, the low turnout is a sign of indifference and the increasingly growing detachment of citizens towards the policy. They are always less to think they can change things, and this is what should make us think. ”

“It ‘s clearly been a defeat, but it was a game with unequal weapons – said the councilor of the M5S minority Fabrizio Savani – there was a kind of ‘deployed referee’. the prime minister, who must organize institutionally consultations, along with the former president urged not to vote. I consider it an institutional misconduct. However, 14 million citizens have their say in a conscious way in this country from the environment tortured – he continues – Today is spring and i’m happy because some people believe they can do something, if we let the politicians or politicastri duty to manage the commons instead of citizens we are fried. we must reclaim our country, go out by twitter and social networks and get back to doing in concrete policy between people and associations. When there is an economic crisis always reported a bigger participation. we lost, but we are part of 14 million citizens and is not little: there was awareness and we start from here. ”

Even the leader of the Democratic Party in the city council, Nicola Dall’Olio , spoke on the outcome of the referendum on drills with a post on his Facebook page: “He won the abstention but not the public interest – writes – who really celebrated are the oil companies no longer have to bear the costs of dismantling of the platforms and will continue to produce gas without paying royalties to the state. on the positive side there are 13 million voters who ask to change the national energy policy.

<'p> the city Council of the Democratic Party Mauritius Bishops , also a supporter of Yes in the referendum, expressed “great regret because we have lost an opportunity to increase awareness on issues that affect the citizens, but they are kept away from the decision-making of politics. And ‘no regret for the failure of the referendum consolidation in local elections, that would be an enormous savings – goes – these political actions yes it gives strength, or give support to the idea that you seek opportunities for savings when it comes to spending review it is clear that it was necessary to the unification. No one had to be afraid of a quorum. The referendum failed, but lost those who have made the choice of a quorum the choice of the referendum. The choice was to be a public stand on one side or the other. “

” There is bitterness for issues that I exposed – Bishops conclude – though 32 percent is not so little if you compares the data with the latest regional elections with a turnout of 37-38 percent. Despite everything, despite not discussed adequately the issue in the media, it is not a negligible proportion so as may be passed. Finally, I say something obvious: it takes with respect to any position – concludes the Bishops – who has sided in a clear showed its intention clearly. You do not feel represented by those who think that the vote is not the right way.

” We as ‘Possible’ last year we were engaged there on a petition that concerned this referendum question – remember Giuseppe Bizzi , the movement promoted by Councillor Civati ​​- unfortunately there were all the conditions to achieve with difficulty a quorum referendum in April, little media coverage, limited and very technical question. But there was a strong value for environmental policies: the choice was between going to a new model of energy sources or to yet another exception to prolong dependence on fossil fuels. Among other things, a concession without term does not exist in any of the sorting and create problems from the legal point of view. Unfortunately, the lack of a quorum is a defeat that referendums knows undergoing many times – continues Bizzi – because abstention growing joins those who want to derail the consultation. But the data must be analyzed carefully: in Parma the latest Regional voted 34 percent of eligible voters. If we put the two results in comparison, they are far from insignificant: the turnout should worry more and more, so I found wrong with the invitation of the President of the Council not to vote. Has tried to prevent the substance na favoring a phenomenon that should worry, because distance from the polls regards all policies and consultations will turn against the policy itself: this should be the focus of debate. “

the director adds that “the commitment to ‘possible’

at the local level on development and environment issues will continue. And ‘an element that divides the political field between those who look to the past and those looking for an alternative model but also in the Tirreno-Brenner. This dividing line will run even the framework of the administrative of next year, because the Democratic Party is increasingly settling into a storage position both locally and nationally. “
