Berlusconi offers big tax cuts in 'last great battle'

Italy’s former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi announced his “last great electoral and political battle” with a sweeping promise to cut taxes and the cost of government if his centre right wins elections this month.

In a passionate and much anticipated speech to supporters in Milan, the city where he built his fortune, he said only his centre right could lift Italy out of the dark fog of recession and re-establish trust between government and citizens.
