WHO HAS LOST THE REFERENDUM ON LOCATION
Leonardo Bertelli
We must be grateful to the 28,317 citizens of Livorno (young, elderly, foreigners) that November 28 went to the polls to vote, overcoming the difficulty of finding seats themselves, contradictory reports the last hour and the weather.
They form the basis of democratic citizenship and awareness on which to build future assets and shareholder of a city that has been proven, in large part, defeatist and indifferent in the face of problems of environment and spatial planning that should cover all the same.
We take care of us who have supported the referendum, which means last forced to turn to a lack of discussion and participation in various forms, they failed to make clear the importance of the occasion referendum and the reasons for defending the reasons for the vote of yes or no clearly and constructively.
Again, and this is also worrying about the fate of the democratic system in which we live, parties, trade unions, associations that are deployed by either side, had no influence on voters and are I believe, the only ones that come out soundly defeated by referendum.
The mayor and councilors, representatives of all political forces which have nominated them from office, take note of the defeat, defeat of democracy, and stop, one of exalting in victory (?) that there has been groped by others to justify a defeat (?) dishonorable for all. Only
flattery and "captazio benevolentiae" (pandering and ass-licker in Livorno) is a declaration to the Mayor that they are "normal" people who did not vote, he who in his program of government had expressed a wish:
".... . ... passed a hierarchical view, the idea of \u200b\u200bparticipation as an engine of change ... not just the people targeted by the actions of government, but these same actions of government ..., the participation evolves tool to build and maintain social ties, to reaffirm and defend a vision of the Community territory ...., Livorno city's participation. "
citizens who voted, who have exercised their sovereignty of the people, are the only winners of the comparison of the referendum, is not intended as professional participation, leaving the task, pro tempore, the mayor, the aldermen, union leaders and associations , and remain watchful waiting for the consequences of their vote and the subsequent opportunities for discussion from the new instrument layout of the city.
