The situation of the Grand Regular Lodge of Italy, as stated in the report of the Anti-Mafia Commission, is the one that, in relation to the GOI, is the most polluted by mafia and 'ndrangheta infiltration. The Grand Regular Lodge of Italy, which was the flagship of Italian and English Freemasonry, has been reduced to ashes by Fabio Venzi. I ask myself: how can the United Grand Lodge of England continue to recognise it as the only Masonic Obedience on Italian soil? What is Venzi waiting for to resign? [...] If Venzi were to resign, perhaps someone else could restore a modicum of dignity to what I consider my Masonic creature.
What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "The situation of the Grand Regular Lodge of Italy, as stated in the report of the Anti-Mafia Commission, is the one that, in relation to the GOI, is the most polluted by mafia and 'ndrangheta infiltration.

[...] If Venzi were to resign, perhaps someone else could restore a modicum of dignity to what I consider my Masonic creature." in the context of "La situazione della Gran Loggia Regolare d’Italia come risulta dalla relazione della Commissione Antimafia, è quella che in rapporto al GOI, risulta la più inquinata dalle infiltrazioni della mafia e della ‘ndrangheta. La Gran Loggia Regolare d’Italia, che è stata il fiore all’occhiello della Massoneria italiana e inglese è stata ridotta in cenere da Fabio Venzi. Mi chiedo: come può la Gran Loggia Unita d’Inghilterra continuare a riconoscerla come unica Obbedienza massonica sul territorio italiano? Cosa aspetta Venzi a rassegnare le dimissioni? […] Se Venzi si dimettesse forse qualcun altro potrebbe ridare un minimo di dignità a quella che io considero la mia creatura massonica.
