5S Senator moves to Mixed, joins Psi component as an 'anti-signature' move

Senator Luigi Nave left the M5s group and joined the Avs component, which is part of the Misto group at Palazzo Madama. Parliamentary sources confirm this, adding that in reality the transition aims to create, within the Mixed, a new component close to Enzo Maraio's 'New Psi' and the 'Italian Civic Project' founded by the Roman councilor, Alessandro Onorato.

An operation that would allow the centrist list to bypass the limit of 6,000 signatures in each constituency, required by the recently approved electoral law to access the polls. By doing so, however, they would only have to collect 1500.

From the M5s it is clarified that Nave, who is the leader of the 5S group in the Anti-Mafia commission, "is and remains of the M5s and has taken charge of a battle that concerns the entire Movement". It was, therefore, "not a palace maneuver" but a move "against a liberticidal and anti-democratic law".

The Movement's own sources explain that "the invitation launched by the civic movements and administrators present throughout Italy" was accepted, because they believe that "the participation of citizens cannot be limited". The transition to a member of the Mixed group is foreseen by the Senate regulations as a necessary intermediate step as soon as one leaves a group.
