Berlusconi has been fighting to remain in the senate, for some time now, but was finally out of legal obstacles to throw at the senate.
He is also banned from running for public office, for two years.
His expulsion also makes him finally vulnerable to various civil charges against him.
The former prime minister has already been sentenced to community service for tax fraud.
This marks a new a chapter in Italian politics, as Berlusconi had been an imposing force there for over twenty years.
