Venice revived?

Sick this past weekend, well that and watching the elections in Italy and Hungary with baited breath. Bizarrely, Austrian loudmouth and Kärntner Landeshauptmann Jörg Haider is now saying that he wants to stand for election in Italy in 2009. He also wants to revive the Venetian Republic (?!), or at least start a regional party which would call for the independence of Veneto. Their name would be Popoli Liberi della Serenissima. Personally I'm waiting for a revival of the Papal States and maybe even the State of Franklin!

Meanwhile, I'm wondering if a leftist government could sort out the morass that passes for Italy immigration system.
