The Lodo Alfano is not, as the name would lead one to suppose, the result of an agreement, but a blackmail. In June of that year, the chairman of the board, to prevent a process in which defendant arrived at the conclusion (Mills trial) and was issued the ruling, the rooms presented the so-called "law blocks process ", according to the estimate estimate of the Superior Council of Magistracy, 100,000 jobs would be frozen and brought to court to block the machine.
To avert this disaster, the opposition forces (except IDV) and the President Napolitano has accepted the "Lodo Alfano", a law in violation of Article 3 of the Constitution (all citizens are equal before the law) makes it not process the Presidents Council, the House and Senate and the President of the Republic, for all crimes committed outside their duties.
A similar attempt, Berlusconi also tried during his previous government, with the Lodo Schifani, triggering the reaction of civil society with the famous "Wandering," which our hero was Senator Pancho Pardi, culminating in the collection of signatures for a referendum that never saw the light, since the Constitutional Court annulled the law intervened to unconstitutional.
Berlusconi has now, at the hands of his minister for Justice Alfano, a new revised and wrong by his lawyer and Secretary for Justice Ghedini, who in the dead time is the time to perform the functions of parliament. But the reasons we
:
-
Constitutionality: although improved, continues to violate The 3rd article of the constitution.
-
Extensibility: always the constitution stipulates that ministers, deputies and senators should have the same rights and thus the Lodo Alfano is a precedent that can be extended to them. And 'these days, the justice committee's discussion of so-called "Lodo Consolo" (submitted by Members of the PDL Giuseppe Consolo, a lawyer of the Minister Matteoli in a trial for breach of official secrets) that will extend the immunity to all ministers .
-
Opportunities: the presence in parliament of just less than one hundred prisoners and suspects, and the scandals that continue to invest our ruling class, it seems legitimate to wonder if Italian citizens can afford to trust their representatives to the point of condoning or advance any crime they may have already committed before and during their electoral mandate.
