A vote to send back to the
committee stage a bill halving MPs' pay was a "kick in the face
for all honest people," the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement,
which filed the bill, said Tuesday. It said the ruling
centre-left Democratic Party (PD) had "written a dark page for
democracy". "The caste continues to save itself, keeping its
privileges intact, demanding sacrifices of citizens who can't
make it to the end of the month," the M5S MPs said in a
statement. "It's a disgrace", they said.
