The Indy: inhabiting an alternative reality since 1986

I kid you not:

The truth is simpler. Italians are fed up with governments that do nothing; that scrape into power in cynical coalitions, stick around just long enough to get some friends out of jail and give juicy contracts to the rest. They looked around Europe and saw Blair, Zapatero and Sarkozy promising big things, getting into power and then actually taking steps to fulfill these promises.


I'm sorry? What the fuck did Blair ever actually do in any kind of constructive fashion? Or is "pissing huge amounts of taxpayer money up the wall" and "starting a war" some kind of fucking achievement nowadays?
