Berlusconi makes 'shock' proposal to scrap property tax

 Former Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi announced Monday he had a "shock" proposal as part of the centre right's election campaign. The three-time Italian premier promised to scrap the IMU property tax if his coalition wins the election, a prospect that is no longer as unlikely as it once seemed after a media blitz by the 76-year-old helped the centre right make massive inroads in the centre-left's lead in the polls.

Misery and the Elections in the Final Stretch

Judith Harris
