AI-generated summary
The Senate discusses and votes on the amendments relating to preferences in the new electoral law.
"Today in the Senate we are voting on the preferences in the electoral law. There is an amendment (by the Democratic Party, ed.) which proposes pure preferences, without blocked lists, similar to what we at Futuro Nazionale had presented to the Chamber. FdI to date has introduced mixed preferences, i.e. with blocked list leaders which represent a huge mockery of the Italian people. I appeal to the entire right and, above all, to Fratelli d'Italia, who had voted for our amendment in the Chamber: vote this too." Roberto Vannacci says it on fb.
"The coherence of FdI is at stake", he adds.
Magi, unworthy spectacle, Meloni reset everything
"Since the initial gestation and then in the discussion first in the House and now in the Senate, the affair of the electoral law has been unworthy and painful, not responding in the slightest to the objective it should serve: guaranteeing representation, restoring strength to the citizens' vote and therefore trust in the democratic circuit, being clear and comprehensible. The government thought of making a tailor-made suit but got the measurements wrong and then began to modify some parts based on the trend of the polls and the background of the day. Behind the high-sounding promise of the government stability has thus been revealed in all its misery as a plebiscitarian plan to be achieved through the manipulation of the rules. Meloni should clear everything up, apologize to the Italians and renounce the electoral coup to remain in power, open a confrontation with the opposition by removing inadmissible anti-democratic rules from the table". This was stated by the secretary of Più Europa Riccardo Magi.

The rate, income ceiling and scope of beneficiaries remain to be defined, while raising the flat tax threshold for VAT numbers from 85,000 to 100,000 euros is also being evaluated, subject to changes in European constraints.
