Voting within Italy’s Movimento 5 Stelle (M5S) began on December 5 and continues until December 8, focusing on changes to the party’s statutes. Beppe Grillo, who has proposed re-voting, faces challenges from former Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte about his role as guarantor. The M5S assembly had previously voted to eliminate Grillo’s position and lift the two-term limit. Conte claims Grillo’s behavior reflects an outdated view, asserting that the party’s members are maturing and fighting for democratic principles.
