"I am ready to public initiatives, to political and legal actions exceptional and extreme. And certainly those who think they change the rules of the democratic game to less than five months from the vote administrative and european will not forget easily the Socialist battle against this beastly Pact ."
That said Riccardo Nencini (Secretary of the Italian Socialist Party) in commenting on the news of an agreement between Veltroni and Berlusconi for an amendment to the electoral law for the European elections.
Veltroni wants to defend his leadership in the party, so the agreement with Berlusconi. He tramples democracy for its own purposes. He wants to introduce a barrier to 4 / 5% to prevent at other parties, including the Socialist Party, to elect MEPs.
The Italian Socialists are preparing to respond to this "beastly" and anti-democratic act.

1. a shamefull agreement by beppe.ita on Thursday, January 29, 2009 at 17:01
After the awful agreement among Berlusconi and Italian democrats (who refused to subscribe the PES Manifesto) the future of socialism in our country is on danger.
So we ask European comrades to support us.
For the first time since European Parliament was established PES Group could lack of italian members, so that mr. Veltroni would get some points more at european elections and save his post, as leader of a party without history, ideas and perspectives, that has nothing to do with european socialism and its glorious history.
