Okay, I'll give some transparency information about this as
it is about me, then I'll shut up for a bit.

Barbato frequently opens his mouth before things are for real. In fact
only one Pirate accepted to work "with" him, being me. I have accepted a
1,5 months job translating and adapting Pirate law proposals to Italian
law, one of which Barbato actually has submitted to Italian Parliament:

http://presidente.camera.it/126?tab=&leg=16&idDocumento=5665 was a
translation of the Hamburger Transparenzgesetz when it left my desk, but
unfortunately he chose not to consult the Pirates further after
intervention of the lawyers. I don't know what's actually inside and the
government website doesn't show yet.

Before accepting this job I asked both the German and the Italian PP
for permission. Unfortunately I didn't bother about a paragraph in the
contract which forbids me from publishing how unspectacular the payment
actually is, but since it's a 1,5 months job, it will be done on Dec 30
and I presume the payment will appear in some governmental documentation
a year later. Or you can ask Barbato himself, since you have been at
the Parliament yourself recently.

All questions in our permanent assembly have been answered the time
when the assembly had to decide about it. Later you were pointed to
reading those decisions. If you decide not to read them it's your bad
will, not ours.

I find it quite Italian to think that a guy who helped bring Berliner Pirates
into parliament since 2009 is likely to get corrupt and financed by evil
politicians while
- getting actual law proposals into parliament even if we're only a 2% party
  that hasn't won any elections yet;
- not offering any electoral advantages to any of the politicians that have
  been talking to us, unlike what they managed to get reported in the media;
- YOU are making deals with the truly evil politicians from the dark side.
  The people we talk to at least are in the opposition.

Fact is, the Italian Pirate Party still hasn't decided on any partnership
with anyone and hasn't put anyone on any candidate list. 

So it's quite funny that YOU should tell US we are being corrupted by
evil opposition politicians!

Cheers, I'm out to catch some fresh air.
