Berlusconi told PDL he took the decision to pull ministers from government alone

A Reuters source at the PDL meeting with Berlusconi:

• Berlusconi told PDL lawmakers he took decision to pull ministers from government alone, there was no sense in remaining in government.

What the heck kind of sick democracy do they have in Italy when a 77-year-old criminal tells elected members of his party to do without even consulting them… and they listen. Get that guy outta there.
