Autonomy, Ronghi (South protagonist): 'The Southern people do not want it'

"According to the Censis research, 56,3% of regional councilors would be in favor of differentiated regionalism? Evidently they have not fully understood the issue or are seeking greater power. The data that really counts, as shown by "Noto Sondaggi", is that only 14 percent of southern citizens agree with autonomy because the majority of southern people have well understood that it would be a further blow to the South". This is what the Federal Secretary of "Sud Protagonista", Salvatore Ronghi, stated, commenting on the results of a Censis research on differentiated regionalism, presented today in Naples. “The heated debate on autonomy is bringing out all the deleterious aspects of a differentiated regionalism that would break Italy into many small states, penalize the South in the fundamental sectors of health, education and mobility, and fuel corruption, as the President of Anac, Cantone, has rightly underlined” - added Ronghi - who concluded: “for this reason we will continue our battle against the secessionist autonomy of the Northern Regions, for the development of the South and for a united Italy also on a social and economic level”.
