If early results hold, it seems like voters were weighting more than just judicial reforms here.

I really wish Italy could stop its century old break ups to make ups love affair with fascism.

Who would have guessed that the populist right can’t govern?

The right has figured out that getting judges who will ignore the law and basic rights is their path to power. Congrats to the Italian people.

> Voters were asked to approve changes to how judges and prosecutors are governed and disciplined, including separating their career paths and reshaping oversight bodies.
Misleading and simplistic headline for an important societal decision.

What it was all about
>Italy currently operates a unified judiciary where judges and prosecutors belong to the same professional body. They take the same entrance exam and can switch between roles during their careers.
>The reform would establish distinct career tracks requiring an initial choice at the start of a career. Switching between roles would no longer be permitted.
>The Superior Council of the Magistracy, which currently governs both judges and prosecutors, would split into two separate councils – one for judges and one for prosecutors. Both would be chaired by the Italian president.
Each council would comprise one-third lay members and two-thirds magistrates. Members would be selected by lottery rather than by election.
Also it seems to turned into a Vote of Confidence for Meloni.

I’m not well versed in the Italian judicial system or the intricacies of the proposed change – I’m sure Meloni was trying to assert some kind of troublesome power over the judicial branch.
That being said. Not keeping judges and prosecutors distinctly and absolutely separated seems odd to me and makes me worry about due process for people being indicted.

this kind of reform was proposed by left wing parties too. it’s not really controversial. you can find a lot of left-wing judges and politicians advocating for it.
but the mainstream discussion about it was awful and quickly became a vote about the government, the ‘yes side’ kept saying bad stuff about the judiciary system, promising impossible effects from the yes vote like “*after the vote the judges won’t be able to stop deportations anymore!*”, while the ‘no side’ kept saying how if the law passed, we would become a dictatorship or similar. none of this was true and the real stuff was much more boring.
I voted yes after informing myself a lot, but I think most people voted no because they don’t trust this awful government to change the constitution. I am disappointed because it was a good thing imho.

Italians went en masse for our standards to vote against this and luckily we did it

In and of itself, the reform wasn’t that bad. But the government said the quiet part out loud several times, this was the first step towards an Orban-like system and it’s good that it was rejected
