			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People around the world with gather today to express their discontent with the Buffone as the Prime Minister of Italy. The immediate goal is simple and easy &#8211; to call for the Buffone&#8217;s resignation &#8211; the ultimate goal of actually making it happening is equally simple but unequally harder!</p>
<p>The event was first intended for Rome, Italy but as the discontent is such the event has moved not just across the European continent but across the globe.</p>
<p>Show up and show your discontent and outrage with the Europe&#8217;s biggest disgrace &#8211; the Buffone.</p>
<p>The list of cities where &#8216;No Berlusconi&#8217; demonstrations will now take place include:</p>
<p><em><span><span>San Francisco and Sacramento, </span><span>USA </span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Ottawa and Montreal, Canada<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Buenos Aires, Argentina<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>London, England<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span> Madrid, Spain<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Amsterdam, Netherlands<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Vienna, Austria </span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Lisbon, Portugal<br />
</span></span></em></p>
<p><em><span><span>Copenhagen, Denmark </span></span></em></p>
<p><span><span><em>Istanbul, Turkey</em><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><strong>May the force be with us! </strong></p>
<h2><strong>2 out of 3 aint bad</strong></h2>
<p><em>3 buffone news &#8211; two good, one bad</em></p>
<p><strong>To take the bad news first<br />
</strong><em>EPP section surprisingly lets Europe down</em></p>
<p>Independently of political orientation, the proposal tabled in the European Parliament against excessive media control was sensible but failed to pass by a few votes. Of course this proposal should have had massive support in the European Parliament including from the EPP (Group of the European People&#8217;s Party (Christian Democrats) &#8211; centre-right).</p>
<p>The buffone and his accomplices in the so-called &#8220;People of liberty&#8221; party are of course part of the EPP and it is obvious that others from the EPP did not want to rock the boat by voting in favor of the motion on media control. However, what they failed to realise is that voting against it they undermine their own credibility and the likelyhood of being future laughing stock &#8211; or even scape goats.</p>
<p>The motion would not necessarily have lead to any concrete measures as the Commission and the commissioner in question Luxemburgish Viviane Reading, unfortunately, so far has been dismissive of the idea to put forward a directive proposal on media control.</p>
<p><strong>The first good news</strong></p>
<p><em>Way to go (!) &#8211; praise to Italian constitutional court</em></p>
<p>It was a day of rejoice when the Italian constitutional court proved itself to have integrity and clout and give in to the political pressure exercised by the buffone and accomplices.</p>
<p>Despite the buffones tireless attempts to undermine democracy in Italy, power there is still, as in any democracy, split in three &#8211; legislative, judicial and executive. The buffone would have liked to join the former two but it did not work out.</p>
<p>Although the buffone probably deep down inside knew that the constitutional court was right and was merely doing its job he could obviously not say that and resorted to the repetitive accusations of judge being communists! Come on! That is so tedious!</p>
<p>But let us not be negative and rather celebrate this rare strike against the buffone and his contemptuous efforts to take complete control of Italy.</p>
<p>The news is not only good in itself it will possibly bring more good news as new trials against the buffone are meant to be kicked off again.</p>
<p><strong>Second good news</strong></p>
<p><em>Milan appeal court upholds conviction that the british lawyer David Mills took 600.000 Euros in bribe from the buffone</em></p>
<p>The bribe was to make David Mills make false testimony in two trials relating to of the buffone’s offshore companies.</p>
<p>David Mills had already been convicted at a lower city court of Milan but him, and the buffone, appealed, but fortunately in vain.</p>
<p>David Mills has said that he will appeal to Italy’s highest court and his plan is very simple. If he can keep the trial going beyond 2010 the case becomes obsolete and he will be off the hook &#8211; expect him and the buffone doing all the stalling they possibly, and impossibly (!) can! Time will tell if the Italian legal system will let them get away with this scam, but so far we have reason to think not, and to be optimistic.</p>
