Always Berlusconi

The Constitutional Court limited the excesses of the Knight, while Italian politics continues to deteriorate

The Italian Constitutional Court has invalidated part of the "law on the legal impediment," one of the last legal stratagems with which Silvio Berlusconi tried to escape Justice. The Constitutional Court combines with the refusal of certain provisions of the interpretation of other, though always with a view to limiting the power of the Executive. The Prime Minister can not autoconcedersi immunity period of six months renewable. And the courts will determine whether the commitments of the head of the government constitute a plausible reason to change the dates of hearings.

In view of the sentence on such failure, it is confirmed that the more outrageous statements may become the norm in Berlusconi's Italy, so the role of the Constitutional Court would simply point out the obvious. Nevertheless, the rule of law has not emerged unscathed from the attacks which has been since I started the problems of the premier with justice. Berlusconi is not enough to impede the functioning of institutions, but has tried to distort through laws that go beyond the balance of powers. With a crucial nuance: that given the preponderance of the Executive wants to free them from criminal liability when he has committed in the past for problems unrelated to the management of government, not to facilitate future action.

Only a day after the ruling on the constitutional legal impediment has exploded, so far, last scandal of the prime minister for his dealings with prostitutes. The Milan prosecutors announced the opening of a new investigation against Berlusconi, who this time is accused of child prostitution and abuse of power for the case of the young Moroccan escaped from a child care center and paid to participate in various festivals held at Villa Certosa, one of which would be present Vladimir Putin. Berlusconi would intercede for the young in front of the police, falsely presenting it as a relative of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
degradation of Italian political life has reached such extremes that neither the court nor the implications scandals seem to threaten the continuity of the prime minister, while the rest of the world is watching with amazement.
