House MP Stefano Fassina, who
leads a dissenting minority within Premier Matteo Renzi's
Democratic Party (PD), said Thursday "it is no secret" the
premier led a dramatic internal revolt that saw 101 PD lawmakers
sink the party's official candidate to become Italian president,
Romano Prodi, in a secret 2013 vote. "We are serious people,
unlike those who...led 101 'snipers' two years ago," he said. "A
part of the PD won't vote for the Italicum (electoral bill) in
the Senate," Fassina told Rome's Radio Città Futura.
