The Italian community in Ireland – which probably appears larger than it really is due the excessive hand gestures and loud exclamations at everything from an offside on tv to the wrong kind of sauce on pasta – get to vote in their home elections. So how lunatic are the ones that got away?

Reassuringly the Irish- based Italians gave a majority in both houses to the loose conglomeration of comedian Beppe Grillo’s 5Star Party.

To see the full breakdown read here and pass it on to your Italian friends.

  1. It would not surprise if Italians in Ireland voted for the corrupt Burlisconi party who the media subtly suggests “offers stability”, yes we’re quite used to that slogan in this country “STABILITY” “retention of your freedom or democratic rights and the possibility of freedom from bank debt VS dissolving your sovereign democratic rights and adopting a stable bank slavery”.

    It would not be surprising mainly due to the way the Irish and English national broadcasters subtly portray such a negative view of Beppe Grillo and his party, subtly suggesting it will bring instability and uncertainty, yes indeed to europe and they’re plan to enslave us all, the media have been constantly using a negative denotation in there tone when referring to Beppe Grillos activity and ambitions, he is obviously somewhat of a socialist democrat with policy of reform, for the people, to revoke bank debt, get out of Europe, you could say anti establishment, which the media have proven and are far from! Beppe Grillo is trying to get his country out of Europe before they put the nail in the coffin(that being in the form of a loan from the proposed ESM), when a country is granted a loan under the proposed ESM, Unelected European Bureaucrats can make “EXACT SPECIFIC ADJUSTMENTS IN A COUNTRIES FINANCIAL POLICY” financial or “fiscal” policy entails funding of health, education, social welfare system, pensions, tax rates and management and development of national resources, this means if a country does not agree with the change in these policies that is Europe legislates , changing the government will not effect the policy, because the policy is coming from Europe not the countries government, therefor this painfully marks the end of democracy as we know it full stop. I don’t think you need to be a politician to figure out what I’m trying to say, but read over it a few time’s just incase.

    Of coarse revolution is always an option, but we must keep one paramount factor in mind when dealing with Political Policy , with Policy come’s Policy Enforcement or as we know it Police Enforcement, and we best be sure Europe have and are gathering there might in that respect, obviously when Europe and our Government suggest this policy to be adopted into our constitution, they don’t care to mention, by the way, check out our Massive Policy Enforcement brigade, which is who we will slowly become accustomed to over the next few years EUROPOL, and who will most likely out number our own police force by a large margin, not to mention our police force will be heavily integrated with over time.

    May I add I am finding it very painful to bear witness to this colossal change of political environment in Europe and our Country and find it just as painful, if not, more so the level of obliviousness to these changes, in our culture in an entirety, sub or otherwise, which I don’t blame the people for, but mainly the brain washing techniques of the Media and our Government, if we do not realize that these two institutions are heavily collaborating to sway public opinion to facilitate there agenda’s, we are as good as done for.

  2. In the 2nd paragraph, line 7-8 I meant to say “which the media have proven they are far from.

  3. It is quite obvious that our country needs a Government that will pull us out of Europe and there detrimental policies and repudiate the bank debt, this is the main reason the media are subtly portraying what is happening in Italy as a negative event, Because they don’t want us or any other European countries for that matter, getting any Idea’s.

    Its funny how many time’s they mention that he is a comedian, and not use the word entertainer, Because the word they would really like to use is “Clown” and which they are also trying to hint at.

  4. I’d just like to add how overwhelmingly happy I am to hear that the people of Italy have givin the majority of the electorate vote the 5 star movement party, they believe in Direct Democracy and increasing citizen participation on decision making through electronic communication technology, reducing salary of public representatives to average wage and many more great political Ideologies in there manfest some of which you can find here which can read here :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Star_Movement ..sounds very promising, and from Italian nationals in Ireland the majority want to Beppe Grillo and the 5 star movement.

    I hope people dont take my comment I wrote earlier above the wrong way or miss the point, what I’m am mainly trying to ot line is the Biased propaganda that is being Broadcaster by Irish and other countries national broadcasters and Mainstream Media, they are trying to portray the party as being a bit of a joke, where as the ideology of the policy they are proposing is a much more intelligent true representation of a transparent republic Democratic system, And one that seems to want to reject handing over control to Europe, At the moment they are refusing to form a coalition with party’s who don’t share the same political ambitions, fair play!

    This means there may be a need for a re election, in coming weeks or months, giving time for the giant media moguls the opposition partys, bankers and the EU to sway public opinion, already Investors have put a hike on interest rates of loans to the Italian government, as a scare taktic to increase peoples fears of economic instability as we all know they love to do. hopefully the result if there is a new election is overwhelmingly in favour of the better party.)

    Its funny I saw as a headline in a German online article: Europe Frets over Italy: ‘Two Clowns Won the Election’

    I hope people dont take my comment I wrote earlier above the wrong way or miss the point, what I’m am mainly trying to outline is the Biased propaganda that is being Broadcasted by Irish and other countries national broadcasters and Mainstream Media, and also trying to look at why whats happening in Italy is a great thing and why it may be best we take it into seriouse consideration, the media are trying to portray the 5 star movement party as being a bit of a joke, where as the ideology of the policy they are proposing is a much more intelligent true representation of a transparent Direct Democracy system, And one that seems to want to reject handing over control to Europe, At the moment the party are being asked to a form a coalition with opposition party’s who don’t share the same political ambitions, and they are refusing too, fair play !!!

    This means there may be a need for a re election, in coming weeks or months, giving time for the giant media moguls and the opposition partys, bankers and the EU to put effort into swaying public opinion, already Investors have put a hike on interest rates of loans to the Italian government, as a scare taktic to increase peoples fears of econmic instability as we all know they love to do.

  6. The reason why there may be another election, even though the 5 star movement party got the highest electorate turn out and also a large majority of the senate, is because they didn’t get enough seats in the senate to form a single party government, for this a 158 seats is needed to represent a government, therefor there is a coalition needed to make up the numbers. the 5 star movement party want to avoid this as they don’t want to compromise on the wishes of the people and form a coalition with party’s who may reject reform and who are pro austerity and so forth.

    please excuse my miss spelling and mistakes in comments in some sentences above, i will better review in future, any clarification needed pleas feel free to ask, as i will monitor feed back
