When trying to explain Italy to my friends I'm often faced with a sense of disbilief on their part. Basically they do not have the very cognitive categories that are required to understant this country. Where but here could a political party steal #49mln euros from the State and then discuss a plea bargain in court and pledge that they will be giving back the money in instalments over the next 80 years? That's incredible isn't it?
So, what about the 49mln €?
