The parties are unashamedly copying the MoVimento 5 Stelle {5 Star MoVement}. They are even embarrassing when they say that „they want to come out from the darkness“ (Gargamel 17 February in piazza del Duomo) or when they proclaim that „no one will be left behind“ (PDminusL). These are slogans taken word for word from the M5S manifesto. As well as the slogans, they’re even copying the programme, like the psycho dwarf who said (hold onto your hats) that politics is about being passionate rather than about money, that his parliamentarians (his – as they have been selected by him personally) will lower their salaries and will only serve two terms of office.

The parties are using „cut and paste“ but there’s one M5S slogan they haven’t made use of „Let’s send them all home“ because it’s very difficult to turn round and give yourself a boot up the backside.
