Sex, drugs and parliament.

In previous post talked about how the Italian government was trying to stop taxpayers avoid paying taxes, and as requested by the church to help him in this task, and the response of one of its representatives. This response highlighted and all instances of the Italian state was engaged in wasting public money in different ways. Among the unnamed priest in question is the payment of salaries of members of parliament.

parliamentary Italy has the most expensive in Europe, who have a basic salary of 9,980 euros per month, roughly the annual amount of my scholarship. The monthly salary of these people can be broken down as follows (Source: 1 and 2 in Italian):
  1. Parliamentary Indemnity: € 5,486.58
  2. Representation Expenses: € 4,003.11
  3. reimbursement of expenses required to maintain contact with voters: € 4,190
  4. Reimbursement for travel from residence to airport close to catch a flight to Rome: from € 3,324.70 (for distances below 100 km) and € 3995.10 (for distances greater than 100 km) (quarterly payment)
  5. Reimbursement for telephone: € 3,098.73 (annual)
  6. are exempt from paying tolls as both air tickets, sea or rail within the Italian territory.
You see, the Italian parliamentarians enjoy a number of privileges that put them well above the average citizen. They have not only high wages, but a series of perks that ease life incredibly. Keep these numbers in mind as I relate the title of this post with its contents, as these numbers are important to the end of this story.

Sex and drugs: Cosimo Mele enters honorable.

last July 29 the newspapers announced that a prostitute had ended in the emergence of the Hospital "San Giacomo" in Rome from an overdose of cocaine after spending a night of sex, drugs and alcohol with a parliamentary background 1 and a colleague.

The lady, a young Italian woman of 29, had called an ambulance saying he felt awful, he was dying. Rushed to hospital, where it is saved, begin investigations to try to establish the causes your state. It invites his partner to the police station where he is interrogated and his version compared to that of the victim. Both agree (Source: 3 )

July 30, the newspapers reveal the identity of the MP: Cosimo Mele, a member of the UDC (Union of center) originating in Brindisi (Puglia). He himself admits the facts, but says it knows who else has used the girl to feel bad. He says he went to sleep, and did not realize how bad it was the girl. It is at this point starting other investigations related to drugs in the room of the hotel where the incident occurred, who brought them. Rep. maintains that it was the same girl, he was the dark about everything. She, on the other hand, argues that it was he who provided the drug. At this point it is unclear which of the two was the one who brought the cocaine into the room. As I said above link, the thing was a totally private until such time that started to trace the source of the drug (Source: 4 , 5 ).

The scandal prompted the resignation of the parliament, and various reactions ranging from condemnation (not too strong) to the mea culpa of their peers. Also caused a few days, in a gesture somewhat stupid some right-wing MPs, especially Mele party, the UDC, drug testing be made public.

Outrage: the voice of Secretary Lorenzo Cesa.

this man's resignation was the least I could do, while research continues, since it was discovered in flagrante committing two crimes, such as prostitution and drug possession and consumption. The condemnation of this situation was not so much what did the guy, after all this is a problem you and your wife if she uses drugs and / or makes use of prostitutes, but the response from his boss, the secretary of the UDC Lorenzo Cesa.

M. Cesa says that parliamentary life is a hard life because of the loneliness that overwhelms (he was MEP) are far from home and family, he understands that some of his colleagues pushed for the solitude to do things like this (does having sex with two women simultaneously enters into the daily life of some MP?, pussy, or Pornoland!). The reprehensible is the suggestion given by the man to avoid such things: increase the salaries of deputies so that they brought their families to Rome (Source: 6).

Excuse me?, Meaning that having a basic salary of 9,980 euros is not enough to be brought to the family moved to Rome. What is for one who earns more or less that in a year? 2. Damn!, I live with it for a year at the most expensive city in Italy, and this guy says is not enough. For Napa, the guy seems to forget that the Italian MEPs are the best paid in Europe. And they want more money, do not you think that is a slap to the taxpayer?, Do not you know that thanks to the labor laws they have passed have created a caste of workers overprotected and a horde of casual workers who survive on low-paying odd jobs ?. Are not you ashamed to earn several times that a college or high school teacher who made a thousand times more important work he of them, is it does not give them grief?. And then come and tell us it is wrong to evade taxes!, Pussy!, How do you tell someone that does not evade taxes when the money you pay is used to maintain parasites?. How would explain to Karet, for they do not understand.

Of course, these statements were strongly criticized by all the exponents of all political forces. I recall the statements given by the deputy "Rifondazione Communist Vladimir Luxuria in referring to the time that must pass an immigrant here in Italy before he could think of to bring your family.

then ask why people distrust politicians Italian, why a book like "La Casta" Sergio Rizzo and Gian Antonio Stella 3 so successful. It succeeds because it reveals the kind of Italian politics: very low.


1 Of those that only part of the parade, no one knows and serve only to vote the party line.
2 For the curious: I earn € 10,000.00 per year, which somewhat reduced after paying social insurance and the like. As a scholarship, do not pay income tax, more for the extra pay to teach me and help me stick to the laboratory 30%. 3
This book is about how the Italian political class wasted public money to benefit themselves from the influence-peddling to the simple parasitism where politicians come to do nothing. A whole Italian bestseller. I have not bought it greatly upset me after reading the first page and do not want my blood rise sharply.

Italy, Policy, Corruption
