struck on the road to Damascus: the PD ditching civil unions

you list what has happened today in the council of the municipality on January 19 XI. On the agenda a resolution by Giancarlo Balsamo (Council of Civic List Beppe Grillo) to introduce a register of civil unions. Send
beyond the examination of two Boards, arrives in the classroom.

Balsamo describes it in this posting.



What's the use? At all? Look, I'm slowly becoming less ideological person in the world. It may be that good for nothing. But in the absence of ad hoc legislation - in an obscurantist as the Italian one where you have to listen to classmates of Eluana to understand what she wanted - a register of civil unions is a tool that in special cases a judge could use to resolve complicated situations. I think to be allocated to children in foster care, I think about succession, reunions family succession in a lease contract. Examples could be several.

Ve do the very near future. PDL, UDC and deserters of various compact voted against (using arguments that stale economy, imagine the worst you hear from Binetti, Gasparri and Casino and we more or less). The Democratic Party has split and with a counselor who has not responded to at the time to vote and another abstained, the resolution is passed.

It was perhaps just a hope. However, a good sign. Easily extended to all municipalities Roman (the log of the living will be introduced Balsamo has been extended to the entire territory of the municipality of Rome). A measure of relevance public, even local, which could become an important precedent, in the absence of legislation that clearly desirable.

Resolution - finished with 9 votes in favor, 9 against and 1 abstention - will be given in the council. And - to paraphrase his words of an adviser who had got wind of the Democratic Party its majority crunching - I hope the Democratic Party, for once, not be electrocuted on the road to Damascus.
