Divided Italy: The Threat of Differentiated Autonomy and its Impact on Citizens’ Access to Services and Fundamental Rights

Meloni’s premiership in Italy faces split

In an electoral event in Aversa, Schlein emphasized the importance of fighting against differentiated autonomy, which could further exacerbate existing inequalities within Italy. He criticized the lack of investment from Salvini’s League in reducing territorial and social disparities, highlighting the negative impact it could have on access to essential services such as education and healthcare. Schlein also raised concerns about the impact of differentiated autonomy on public health, particularly for citizens in different regions.

Speaking at an electoral event, Prime Minister Meloni emphasized that the situation regarding the premiership is critical, as it could result in the splitting of Italy. This sentiment was echoed by Elly Schlein, the secretary of the Democratic Party, who expressed concerns about the potential increase in territorial gaps that could result from this autonomy.

Schlein pointed out that the lack of decent wages, dignified jobs, and access to public healthcare could limit individuals’ freedom. He criticized Meloni’s refusal to support measures such as a minimum wage and highlighted the challenges faced by those who cannot afford essential medical treatments. In response to Meloni’s challenge to list freedoms canceled by her government, Schlein emphasized the need to resist differentiated autonomy and the related reforms to prevent further harm to vulnerable individuals. The Democratic Party remains committed to advocating for policies that promote equality and protect all citizens, regardless of their geographic location or socio-economic status.
