Ms Boldrini is not up to the job in her parliamentary role and she behaves inappropriately and she’s just been unbelievably lucky. She knows that and everyone knows that. She has two advantages, Napolitano likes her and she obeys orders and, for this regime, those two advantages are more than enough. Ms Boldrini must pack up and leave the Lower House and fast. The position of President of the Lower House is one that guarantees parliamentary debate. She has betrayed her position. The IMU-Bankitalia legal decree has gifted 7.5 billion to the banks but taken from the people of Italy (and Renzi has been preaching for a month now – saying that he wants to make the people of Italy save a billion euro …) with a subterfuge worthy of a third class rag and bone merchant, he associated the abolition of the second IMU payment with taking away value from the Bankitalia. They could have split up the the two decrees, the M5S would have immediately voted for the abolition of the IMU tax. But that didn’t happen. The M5S raised some points in full accordance with the rules. It acted as „Opposition“ which is not to be muddled up with the term „obstructionism“ which is close to the hearts of the TV News programmes and the daily papers suitable for toilet paper, that is how nearly all the newspapers have become. Are you not used to an Opposition after decades of mess ups? OK. Well you’ll have to get used to it. In accordance with the regulations, numerous interventions were planned and because of the time they would take, that would have meant the decree would have failed. The so-called „tagliola“ {guillotine}, the procedure that allows for discussion to be terminated and immediately pass to the voting stage, is a procedure present in the regulations of the Senate, but not in those of the Lower House. Ms Boldrini put an end to all discussion without even the pretext of a regulation. She acted on her own initiative and was abusing her powers, she had a vote within a minute so that she could run away through the service door.
