Cable Forum - The Italian Senate has voted to expel Berlusconi

Quote:

The Italian Senate has voted to expel ex-Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi from parliament with immediate effect over his conviction for tax fraud.

Berlusconi, who has dominated politics for 20 years, could now face arrest over other criminal cases as he has lost his immunity from prosecution.

How it has taken this long to put this clown in a position where he can be properly prosecuted is beyond me.

Maybe this sort of thing should happen in UK politics too? With REAL penalties?
