What did the Italians choose this time?

Recent elections in our country moved the ideals of the Italian people towards two main parties.
Italians chose as head of government Silvio Berlusconi, who won about 47 percent in both Houses of Parliament. Berlusconi promises to fight against some problems like inflation, criminality and immigration.

On the other hand, the centre-left party is the second one concerning the number of votes; Italy of Values, headed by Antonio Di Pietro, is fifth in the standing.

The Left, whose leader is Walter Veltroni, has to try to strengthen its opposition, also by encouraging the smaller parties to follow them.
