Many are calling it La Festa della Liberazione<\/strong>. It\u2019s the 12th November 2011, and our infamous \u2018Cavaliere\u2019, Silvio Berlusconi, has finally been forced to resign by the international community. Celebrations of this scale for the departure of a political leader have not been seen here in Italy since Mussolini was deposed in 1943!<\/p>\n

This video gives an\u00a0 insight into the euphoria and huge sense of relief felt by millions of Italians:<\/p>\n

Here is a selection of the cori<\/strong> (chants) which you can hear in the video translated into English (Warning, contains offensive language)<\/span>:<\/span><\/p>\n

Buffone Buffone Buffone<\/strong> (Fool Fool Fool)<\/p>\n

Berlusconi pezzo di merda \u2026\u2026\u2026 Berlusconi pezzo di merda<\/strong> (Berlusconi piece of shit\u2026\u2026\u2026 Berlusconi piece of shit)<\/p>\n

In the middle of the video you see an orchestra and choir perform the Hallelujah Chorus in front of Il Palazzo del Quirinale<\/strong> where Berlusconi handed in his resignation.<\/p>\n

Our president Giorgio Napolitano<\/strong> has appointed the highly respected apolitical economist Mario Monti<\/strong> as the new Prime Minister and asked him to form an emergency government in order to tackle Italy\u2019s deepening financial crisis.<\/p>\n
