Meet Italy’s Hot New Ministers

May 5, 2009 Italy 1 Comment

Seeing as Berlusconi seems to want to put the glamour back into dull old Italian politics, I thought you might like to see the candidates he may be fielding for his next government.

In the name of equal opportunities, all of the ministers will be female, although he, of course, will retain the job of party leader, and thus prime minister.

Future party political congresses will really be parties, and will probably be held on a beach not too far from Berlusconi’s palatial villa on Sardinia, or so several little birds have been whispering in my ears.

Take a look at some of Italy’s proposed new cabinet ministers.  Or should that be ‘ministresses’.  I’m sure you will fancy their chances.

Rumour has it that number 15, Miss Sorriso, is the Italian bookies favourite to become Italy’s next Reform Minister.  She certainly seems to have the right assets.

Then there is Miss Eleganza, number 39, who is tipped to become Italy’s next Minister for Tourism, and the chances are that Italy’s next finance minister will be number 35, Miss Cotonella.  Number 28, Miss Moda Mare, or so my sources tell me, is likely to be appointed to the post of Minister for Italy’s Fashion industry.

Then we have number 48, Miss Deborah, who is to be offered the position of Health Minister because she looks pretty fit.

It really will be a model government.  Watch the video and judge for yourselves.

Candidates for the Hot New Italian Cabinet

Which ones would you vote for?

All have been carefully selected on the basis that they like working with children, want to save the world, and have declared their willingness to satisfy the desires of Italy’s population, particularly the male members.

Indeed, the interpretation by the Italian press of Berlusconi’s recent attendance at an Italian beauty’s eighteenth birthday party is simply divorced from the truth.   Berlusconi was merely involved in the selection of his new cabinet.  Nothing more, nothing less.

I mean, how could anyone, apart from a scummy baby eating commie, have suspected anything different? ;)

Francesco Cossiga Understood Italy

18 Aug 2010

For those who did not know, Francesco Cossiga, who died the other day, was an Italian politician and one time President of Italy. Cossiga hailed from Sardinia, was a fan of John Le Carre and had earned himself the nickname “the pickaxe” owing to his no holds barred criticism of other Italian politicians.

Berlusconi v Fini – Slinging Old Mud

12 Aug 2010

As you may be aware, the generally tumultus world of Italian politics is in turmoil. The Berlusconi government is teetering on the brink of collapse, but what is really surprising, is that this collapse was sparked from the inside.

Berlusconi Divorces Fini

30 Jul 2010

Kotipizza Berlusconi

From spat to full-blown split. Silvio Berlusconi’s marriage of political convenience to Gianfranco Fini has ended in tears. Scorned lover Berlusconi even rejected Fini’s last minute attempts to kiss and make up and remain part of Berlusconi’s party of love. End of love in. Period.

Italian News Fragments from July 2010

It’s hot here. Summer was a little late in coming this year, but it’s well and truly here now. I’m keeping busy, which is good, but I’m finding less time to blog about Italy, which is not so good. Here’s a little of what his happening in Italy at the moment.

Italian Minister Aldo Brancher Resigns

OK, OK, I know the resignation of a government minister is not the most earthmoving event in the universe, but it’s highly unusual occurrence here in Italy. What’s even more unusual is that Aldo Brancher was only in office for barely 18 days.

The Curious Case of Aldo Brancher

Aldo Brancher is Italy’s latest minister, and an old friend and associate of one Silvio Berlusconi. Supposedly, Brancher is the minister of ‘Decentralisation and Subsidiarity’, whatever that means. Anyway, approximately two seconds after being appointed Minister Brancher has become embroiled in scandal.

Is Italy a Normal Country?

Things are starting to look abnormally ominous for press freedom in Italy. Legislation introducing new wire-tapping, or rather, anti-wire-tapping stroke press gagging rules, took a step closer to being written into Italy’s law books yesterday after the bill proposing the changes passed though Italy’s Senate.

Wire Tapping Troubles in Italy

As ever, lots has been going on in Italy, from films criticising the current ‘regime’ to proposals to save Italy millions. Controversy rules the roost, as often seems to be the case in Italy. One thing in particular is causing a major stir – the Berlusconi government’s modifications to Italy’s telephone surveillance or ‘wire-tapping laws.
