68% of Italians want the Gypsies out

Good to see that Berlusconi's coalition of the willing stands up for what's important. Sadly, an Italian recently said to me that the Roma people "aren't the historic people of Italy" and that they therefore should be extradited. Of course, when you ask "to where?", there's no answer. But let's not dwell on the details, eh? Berlusconi and his Lega Nord friends are hard at work on the new populism: how long before the PP see the opportunity?

We're off to Rome in about a week so I'll try to assess the local feeling while I'm there.

Incidentally, we just had a fantastic weekend in Hackney. London Fields went down very well with a few cans of Belgian lager.
