Marco Follini leaves the UDC

Marco Follini, former secretary of the UDC, has decided to leave the party, founding his own group, l’Italia del mezzo.

This was not unexpected - Follini had left his post as party secretary a while ago, and had carped about his party’s policy and Berlusconi’s leadership of the centre-right. What is surprising, at least to me, is the willingness of Italian politicians to found new parties which have negligible electoral prospects.
