Berlusconni

SILVIO BERLUSCONNI IS BEING INTERVIEWED

INTERVIEWER
Mr Berlusconni what do you say to rumours that you're the new Mussolini.

BERLUSCONNI
Nonsense, just because I controle all the media, head up an ultra right wing gouvernment, and am planning on invading Ethiopia.

INTERVIEWER
But you're rounding up immigrants, and supporting anit Gypsy pogroms. Sorry did you just say invading Ethiopia.

BERLUSCONNI
Nonsense I mean I'm going for a very long holiday, with the army, not an invasion at all. Any way these immigrants all have attention deficit disorder, so we're going to help them concentrate, with special camps.

INTERVIEWER
Concentration camps?

BERLUSCONNI
Why don't you visit one see what they're like?

BERLUSCONI
Nonsense. Just because I control all the media, head up an ultra-right wing government and am planning a very long holiday in Ethiopia. With the army. (BEAT) It's not an invasion.
