...done it he has. His team in suburban London recently unveiled the T.25 car - a three-seater made of flyweight composite materials that is smaller than a Smart car but has more interior room and gets 80 miles to the gallon. He's also started work on a $14.9 million project - partially funded by the British government - to develop four prototypes of an electric car, to be called the T.27, by February 2011. He promises the T.27 will be 27% more efficient than any other electric vehicle (EV), yet still capable of a top speed of 60 m.p.h...
...voted for him because there was no better alternative. I am happy with what his government has done so far, which is vastly more that any fractious, self-opinionated, center-left alliance did in the past. Many members of his Cabinet like the Ministers of Finance, Agriculture, the Interior, Environment (a woman), Instruction (another woman) and the Disaster Relief Agency are delivering good results. Ms. Carfagna is not just a pretty partygoer, her achievements as Minister for Equal Opportunities are hard to deny. Among the voters who elected Berlusconi were many urban professionals, well educated, cosmopolitan, weary of the stiff...
...Mixing national identity with immigration is an error," says conservative legislator and former Interior Minister François Baroin, who is one of several politicians on the right calling for the debates to be ended. "It's opening Pandora's box." Former conservative premiers Alain Juppé and Jean-Pierre Raffarin have similarly questioned the "utility" and "intellectual rigor" of the debates. And Sarkozy's own commissioner for ethnic diversity, Yazid Sebag, admitted to being "not very comfortable" with the initiative...
...Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky, imprisoned on tax evasion charges, told Russian Interior Ministry investigators that he was being denied medical care and subjected to "inhumane and humiliating conditions" in Moscow's notorious Butyrka jail. The treatment, he said, resulted from his refusal to give false testimony against himself and others. A month later, Magnitsky, 37, was dead. The Interior Ministry, which had charged the lawyer with conspiring to help William Browder, head of the London-based investment firm Hermitage Capital, allegedly evade more than $3 million in taxes, said it had not been aware that he had been...
...Interior Ministry has denied any ulterior motives in Magnitsky's detention, saying he was being held solely because of the tax evasion charges. (Browder says those charges were without merit.) In April, a Moscow court convicted a sawmill foreman, Viktor Markelov, of fraud in connection with the raider scam, sentencing him to five years in prison. The verdict mentions only "unidentified persons" as Markelov's co-conspirators and does not include any reference to the Hermitage subsidiaries being stolen. But the company says Markelov was likely just a bit player and notes the $230 million has yet to be returned...
