Deputy Lower House Speaker Luigi
Di Maio told an ANSA Forum on Monday that his anti-establishment
5-Star Movement (M5S) will call for new elections if the No vote
wins next month's Constitutional referendum. "If the No vote
wins I imagine (Premier Matteo) Renzi's government will no
longer exist and the president will ask the political parties
what they want to do," he said. "We will say that we want
elections as soon as possible". He said a No vote would also be
a rejection of the idea of a "special purpose" government tasked
with passing a few specific measures before new elections.
