  Yesterday there was speculation as to whether the strike in Italy would gather as many as 1 million people, but now it shows that 3 million turned out to protest.
  Explains a lot as to popularity if austerity in Italy.
  
  Also, the £1 trillion debt of Italy seems strikingly close to the £900+ billion debt of Britain.
  
  I wonder if leaderless Dave has also noticed this!

  Rome was once a mighty city, Brian!
  The Scots stood up and challenged Rome, and progressively move the border from the Claudian Wall to Hadrian's Wall, and then from Hadrian's Wall to beyound Dover!
