    My favourite berlusconi moment was when a protestor bashed him in the face with a tiny replica of the colloseum.

      It was not the Colosseum, but the Milan cathedral.

      That would be a replica of “Duomo di Milano”, the central church of Milan. The assaliant was mentally unstable so it wasn’t as much a political statement as we’d like.

      He still broke his nose though.

    I preferred him to be castrated and left to die in his feces, but one less but now almost meaningless problem for Italian politics I guess.

    Any ideas what the implications might be for the governing coalition? Any chances this will lead to some sort of trouble or realignment?

      Forza Italia had an 8% share last elections so I don’t think it matters a lot. We’ll most likely see a bunch of defection to the other two coalition parties and nothing else

    Crazy how long he was still active in politics. He could have retired ages ago…
