Silvio Berlusconi next gaffe betting

Ireland’s largest bookmaker, Paddy Power, have today opened a book on which World leader will be insulted next by Italy’s gaffe-prone Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi. 

The 72-year-old politician once again finds himself at the centre of controversy after he referred to US President Barack Obama as "suntanned", days after being snubbed by Michelle Obama at the G20 meeting in Pittsburgh.

Paddypower are offering odds of 3/1 that Germany’s re-elected Chancellor Angela Merkel will be first to fall foul of the mischievous Italian PM who once referred to German MEP, Martin Schulz as a “concentration camp guard”.

Other World leaders likely to be in the firing line according to Paddy Power include Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi at 7/2, English Prime Minister Gordon Brown at 4/1 and French President Nicolas Sarkozy at 5/1.

Paddy Power said “Berlusconi is the consummate showman and one of the most colourful politicians on the world stage.  Given his extraordinary track record for ruffling feathers we’re sure it’s only a matter a time before he lands himself in hot water again”
