"I will go to vote and I will vote for Italia dei Valori. At a time when Silvio Berlusconi and Marcello Dell'Utri come out into the open and, in order to have a majority in the Senate, do not hesitate to praise the silence of the boss Vittorio Mangano, I think it is necessary to give strength to those who clearly say no to the mafia. [...] I therefore invite everyone to think about what happened between 2001 and 2006 when our country took great steps towards the regime with the secret services spying on journalists and magistrates, with the purges and censorships in Rai , with the major international press ridiculing Italy and its executive every day. There is not a single reason to think that next time it will be different. Berlusconi, moreover, has been clear in recent weeks: he wants to reintroduce parliamentary immunity, ban telephone wiretapping, and put his hands on public television again and more thoroughly. I think avoiding all this is a precise duty of those who care about freedom."

"In the UK, it is not parliament that supervises the BBC, but it is the BBC that supervises the activities of parliamentarians and their collaborators."
