Venice votes to split from Italy as 89% of the city's residents opt to form a new independent state
Organisers said that 2.36million, 73 per cent, of those eligible to take part voted in the poll, which is not recognised by the Rome government.The West is coming apart and it will unleash a new wave of political and economic reform, but it will be messy.
The ballot also appointed a committee of ten who immediately declared independence from Italy. Venice may now start withholding taxes from Rome.
......'We are only at the Big Bang of the movement - but revolutions are born of hunger and we are now hungry. Venice can now escape.’
The big vote will be when a U.S. state or region (the South) votes to leave the United States.
