shakeaperiana seems a plot, but it's Italy. In policy of the boot there was never a King Duce There was a monarch and a few more dwarf in stature than our own, because all a free popular power like the current one of Berlusconi.
The other European countries have had a king, often more than one.
Those foreign kings had a historical role, to limit the powers of the barons building a central power which in time and change of the political and social system has become unified and better governed. What was lacking in Italy.
Until yesterday. Today there is a Premier who chooses its candidates in the regions (see Sardinia, Abruzzo, etc. etc.) the silencing - so it seems - the claims of local landlords. There is a Premier who knows and can say in all matters public (and government) and private (and thus controls the advertising business). There is a Premier who is not a Duce, some more than a ducetto. For me - limitatametne to this post - Berlusconi may be an opportunity not to be missed.
Italy had little states, dominions, rulers, pentapartitici systems, CAF. Always divided powers and never shared or synthetic (at least it seems that in finance there has been an undisputed king, that lord of Mediobanca Cuccia where today sits the daughter of the Premier).
The point is: when the end sopraggiungerà policy Berlusconi, the local landlords raising its crest or Berlusconi has been really strong enough to change the system and leave one, maybe more in debt, but at least able to express that leadership should not negotiate any day with squires and colonels received the delegation to govern from the voters?
All these thoughts come from the most important statement that Berlusconi could do. A real political divide. And that is its support for the referendum .
The importance of news is to read between the lines of the Novella 2000 which is our information system. Berlusconi said softly to prevent Lord s'incazzi Bossi, and had to deploy the family gossip to distract a bit 'the League and all the others. Today
read it everywhere that Veronica Lario is disgusted by the "shameless junk", referring to the tissue to the European Parliament, personally chosen by the husband-premier. Record less prominent compared to the dreaded confrontation Berlusconi-Bossi, to become the first all news sites - aaah! would that journalists would read più La voce che Dagospia!
Tornando a bomba. Se Berlusconi appoggerà davvero il referendum che introduce il premio di maggioranza per il partito che prende più voti e non per la coalizione, e se il referendum passerà, probabilmente cadrà il governo, ma lui diventerà un quasi statista. Perché la Lega non sarà più perno di niente e avremo due soli megapartiti. Insomma, un'Italia un po' meno schiava dei ricatti dei nani.
Quelli veri.
