Renzi's Italian Job
13:30 GMT 05.12.2016 (Updated: 13:39 GMT 05.12.2016) Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi's decision to hold a nationwide referendum on his widely touted constitutional reform backfired spectacularly as he had to follow up on his earlier promise to resign if citizens vote against his initiative.
Renzi's resignation marks the end of a rollercoaster ride for a prime minister who came to power as Italy's youngest PM, staking his reputation on close relations with the EU and going down in the face of growing antipathy for the union.
