northern Italy and particularly the region of Lombardy is tyred of the rest of Italy and governement has asked to take part of switzerland. I remember that only the region of Lombardy is bigger than all switzerland. Politically it's impossibile that happen, anyway on the web someone in italy did a poll...Do you want to take part of switzerland...more than 14000 people have signed in 2 days.

This region of Italy has a population of 10 million and contains Milan.

I can totally see the minority of just 14,000 people winning this

HERE IN SWITZERLAND we don't want Lombardy and other countries, that sure. Italy have many problems and no money. stay away.

It's only a virtual poll but 15000 in 2 days is a good number, think that not all people have a computer and not every single person has a computer. But it's a sign that they are not happy of the rest of Italy.

So.. part of italy falls out with the rest of italy, and decide that they are now part of switzerland? without giving the swiss any say in the matter? Excellent.. I'm declaring that scotland is now part of norway, the home counties are part of france, and manchester is a non-eu country..

It would never work. The people of southern Ticino would have too far to drive to nip over the border and get cheap shoes and fuel.

Is this not just a daft April Fool prank by a regional news outlet? :/

^ That's what I'm thinking.

Just been looking at the 8 bit version of Italy. Realised it looks like a boot kicking a chicken.
