Berlusconi the Paedophile?

May 8, 2009 Italy news 2 Comments

The headline in today’s edition of Libero, a centre-right Italian newspaper, is Tesi: Silvio Pedofilo – Thesis: Silvio Paedophile.

The paper, which is pro-Berlusconi, was expressing its indignation over the insinuation made in Annozero, a political chat show on Italian television .

Michele Santoro, who hosts this chat show, has never been a great Berlusconi fan, it has to be said.

Last night, Santoro, ably assisted by another anti-Berlusconi ally, in the form of author, Marco Travaglio, left certain people with the impression, that the picture being painted of Silvio Berlusconi was that of his being a paedophile.

Funnily enough, I was waiting for such a supposition to break the surface of the Italian media sea, and now, it has. … Continue Reading

Berlusconi’s Marriage Fails

May 4, 2009 Italy news 3 Comments

Veronica Lario, the wife of Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, announced that she wants to leave her media mogul husband.

Despite recent claims by Italy’s number one politician that his wife had again fallen under the dubious influence of Italy’s dastardly commie press, it appears as though one Italian has had enough of the tanned supremo’s never ending antics.

The recent claim that Berlusconi was to field beauties and personalities as political candidates, along with another incident involving Silvio attending the party of one such beauty seems to have been the final straw for Ms Lario.  It looks as though Berlusconi has been spending a little too much time looking after his business and political interests, and not bothering with family commitments.  The net result is that he has riled his wife one final time.

Italy’s first couple were married in 1990, although they had been friends since 1980.
