REUTERS - Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi on Tuesday said he would not resign over a probe into allegations he paid for sex with a 17-year-old nightclub dancer.

"What, are you all mad?" Berlusconi said when asked if he would bow to calls from the opposition for his resignation.
 
"I'm absolutely calm, I'm enjoying myself."
 
Berlusconi faces growing pressure to resign after Milan magistrates alleged several women prostituted themselves with the prime minister at his homes, including the 17 year-old dancer who goes by the name "Ruby, Robber of Hearts".

Italians have not stopped having parties like this since Nero and Caligula. It didn't help then and its not helping the peninsula now.

Since when has an allegation

Since when has an allegation been proof? Why should the Prime Minister resign because some women have made claims against him? It's ridiculous. Prime Minister Berlusconi is right to stick to his guns.
