Italian MEPs of the past legislation are told to be the best paid for least work, for sure was not easy to build fruitful relationships with most of them about digital freedom issues.
Newly-elected Italian MEPs are not much interested into these matters, only six of them actually signed the Caro Candidato Campaign (part of the “free software pact” initiative).
Marco Cappato, one of the most active on those issues, is out because his party is below the 4% threshold.
Italian MEPs elected:
Sonia Alfano, Vittorio Prodi, Niccolò Rinaldi, Gianluca Susta, Patrizia Toia, Gianni Vattimo.
