Political Press Release number twenty-three

beppe-lincoln.jpg

The Five-star Civic Lists won 23 seats on municipal councils, 6 district Council seats and 4 Group Leader posts in the coalitions formed with other associated Lists. A total of 64 nomination Lists were lodged in as many Municipalities. As the situation NOW stands, about one out of every two Municipal Councils includes a Five Star Civic List representative. The Civic List that received the highest percentage vote was that of Monte San Pietro with 15 votes, or 80%. In some provincial capitals, such as Bologna, Pesaro, Reggio nell’Emilia, Modena, Cesena, Livorno, Ferrara and Empoli, the Five-star Civic Lists took more than 3% of the vote. And that’s without any funding, or television, or newspapers and notwithstanding having to deal with the hostility of the political parties, with the Pdwithoutanel first in line. The list of names of the people elected will be posted in the respective Civic List areas on this Blog, together with their respective e-mail addresses so that you they can be contacted. If there had been a Five-star Civic List for all of the Municipal Councils, perhaps we would have had 3,000 councillors on our side. I will be holding a meeting with these newly elected municipal councillors before the end of this summer, in order to assist them in terms of applying the programme contained in the Florence Bill. Joining me at this meeting will be a number of experts in the fields of communications, Municipal Council finances and renewable energy sources. The Blog will continue to act as a permanent open window overlooking the councillors’ activities and objections. A social network will be created to connect all those people that voted for the Civic List candidates. This is just the beginning of a movement that also managed to get two independent Deputies elected to the European Parliament in Brussels, namely Sonia Alfano and Luigi De Magistris, thanks to hundreds of thousands of votes. We’re getting there, slowly but surely, just like the Web. Next year we will be holding Regional Council elections and, now that we have Five-star Municipal Councils, the next step will hopefully be Five-star Regions. And after the Five-star regions, perhaps a Five –star State. Our State, instead of the one currently usurped by our own employees who now treat us as servants. A Clean Parliament is our right. 350,000 signatures have been deposited with the Constitutional Affairs Committee. Now the proposed law, which stipulates the ineligibility for election of convicted offenders and people that have already served two terms, as well as a return to preferential voting, MUST get to the Senate, and it will get there. They may never give up (is it in their interests?), but neither will we.

Thanks to Beppe Grillo for providing real information in this world of prostitutes but I don't understand why he is such a fun of Obama who is giving enormous quantity of money to the Banks and Car companies. It has been calculated that with the trillion dollars printed by the federal reserve and given to this companies to produce what? (the stores are full) every single citizen in U.S. would have received 50.000 $.
Oblabla or Obama,
