Italian Election Results

Whilst we were in Italy, the elections took place and amazingly at 71, Silvio Berlusconi is back for the third time with a convincing majority. I do my best, but I really can't make sense of Italian politics. This is Italy's 62nd government since the War and Prodi's previous government lasted less than 2 years. People we spoke to in Italy had divided opinions. However, most viewed Prodi as a disaster.

Will Berlusconi lead Italy to a brighter future? Well the Economist doesn't seem to think so.
