So, Berlusconi lost his immunity then (I'm a bit late with this I know). Does that mean there is any realistic chance of him going to gaol or whatever? How does it affect Mills? What about the ginormous fine to his family company, are they gonna make that stick or will he wriggle out of that? I guess it's just more and more legal process without anything ever actually happening in the end. I'm just interested in how he argued that it was constitutional for him to have immunity from prosecution even though the constitution specifically says that no-one (except the speaker or something) should have such an immunity.
Mills' appeal against his sentence (4 years?) begins on Friday, I believe. He'll testify for Silvio too, should his case come to court, though presumably this time without the incentive OF A MASSIVE GREAT FUCKING BRIBE.
The Big B in jail? Not gonna happen, really, but he could conceivably be forced from office. And not before time. Speaking of right-wing Italian wankers, I hear (Liverpool's crocked signing) Aquilani's a big fan of Mussolini - and he doesn't even have the excuse of being ex-Lazio.
