Read the full account

On 30 October 2025 the Italian Senate gave the fourth and final parliamentary reading to the constitutional bill separating judicial careers, 112 in favour, 59 against, 9 abstentions. The Five Star Movement voted against. Giuseppe Conte, as M5S president, called the reform a design to clip the judiciary and take full powers.

Context

He was opposition leader, not justice minister. Carlo Nordio is unresolved. Meloni is live. Two-thirds was not reached, so a confirmatory referendum followed; that later vote is neighbouring.

30 October 2025 Senate fourth reading; Gazzetta the same day. Stored as one 30 October 2025 Fact. Keep Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against on 2025-10-30 separate from neighbouring 1 June 2018 oath, 4 October 2018 d.l. 113, 6 August 2021 M5S presidency, and 30 October 2025 Nordio fourth reading.

The M5S president who was president of the Council can swear a cabinet, co-propose a decree-law, and bind a parliamentary group. He does not sit as the Senate’s vote counter on 30 October 2025, as the Constitutional Court, or as Carlo Nordio. A 2018 gazette is not authorship of every later Superbonus coefficient. Sharing a 2018 cabinet with Matteo Salvini is not a reason to drop 4 October 2018.

Why it matters

The path is the owned M5S-opposition driver: a completed opposition no on a constitutional judicial-career bill.

What the sources establish

Politico carries the official instrument or communique. la Repubblica records the same dated act independently.

Established: Senate 112–59–9 on 30 October 2025. M5S voted against. Conte publicly bound the no as party president.

Not established: A unique later referendum-turnout integer as size, or that he authored the Nordio bill.

Sharing the no with PD and AVS is not a reason to drop 30 October 2025.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against, not a later speech about Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He bound M5S as party president. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
