Autonomy supporters should snu

Veneto Governor Luca Zaia said Thursday that supporters of the government's law bringing in 'differentiated autonomy' to enable regions to request more power over how the tax revenues collected in their areas are spent should snub a possible referendum on abolishing the legislation.
    The supreme Court of Cassation on Thursday gave the all-clear to the referendum but Zaia said the Constitutional Court will have the final word.
    "If there's a a referendum, I think it is fundamental that those who believe in autonomy should not go to the polls," he said.
    "It seems logical to me, given that this is a referendum with a quorum.
    "So this is the point that will decide the game.
    "But before playing this game, it is right to wait with deference and respect for the decision of the Constitutional Court, which will come around January 20".
