    My favourite berlusconi moment was when a protestor bashed him in the face with a tiny replica of the colloseum.

      It was not the Colosseum, but the Milan cathedral.

      That would be a replica of “Duomo di Milano”, the central church of Milan. The assaliant was mentally unstable so it wasn’t as much a political statement as we’d like.

      He still broke his nose though.

    There are already 100 other Berlusconi like people trying to get the power like he had. One passing away doesn’t change human nature.

    I preferred him to be castrated and left to die in his feces, but one less but now almost meaningless problem for Italian politics I guess.

    I’m Italian and I didn’t like him. Still his death hurts quite a bit. He’s been around since I was a child, he was always there (probably owning a media company helped). He was well loved by many thanks to owning AC MILAN.

    The most similar thing I can think of was the death of Elizabeth II.
