Two weeks ago the Mayor of Pescara was placed under house arrest on charges of concussion. The mayor has resigned. After 10 days the court has removed the arrests because "it has failed the possibility of contamination of evidence." Veltroni has since defined the behavior of judges "very serious".
I note that: (1) charges to the Mayor are all still standing, (2) no one forced the mayor to resign, unless decency, and evaluations of political opportunity. (3) A few days earlier, came under investigation when he was the son of Di Pietro (in intercepted phone calls planned to bring it to a few rogues groped to involve: the judge decided to investigate to see if they had managed to involve, so far revealed nothing). Peter had taken an opposite line, "the judges go ahead with the investigation."
I personally appreciated the position of Di Pietro, and I was shocked by that of Veltroni. If Veltroni wanted to open a political issue on the relationship between politics and the judiciary, the worst way to do it was to defend a PRIVATE investigated: lent it the next irony the right. It is also the first time that a center-left leader takes the field against the judges under investigation to defend a political party of their own: an innovation that did not feel the need.
regard to the reform of justice, I think: (1) The reform of the relationship between politics and the judiciary is not urgent, (2) The priorities are instead: save time and costs for the public process, (3) The relationship between politics and the judiciary, if you really want to reform, to pass more stringent limits on advertising of a judicial, not to the politicization of the judiciary. Referring to intervention Palamara (see Home Page of the site meeting on 4 October 2008) investigation.
Scalfari end with a phrase: "The Italian corruption is a phenomenon that stems directly from the existence of a ruling class barricades to defend their privileges, the appropriation of public resources by the powers that be ... Finally, in the absence of a legally recognized the need to make up for that absence with petty corruption, which is necessary to mitigate the will ... " This is also my conviction.
