An English 350-soul village was supposed to have more than 1,250 male asylum seekers on its doorstep – and announced in protest the "independence" of Britain. Report24 reported in August on Piddington's unusual insurrection against the government's plans. Now the residents have actually voted: around 91 percent voted in favour of the UK's detachment.
In the village of Piddington in Oxfordshire, England, a referendum was held on "independence" in response to opposition to an immigration plan. The vote was 285 in favor and 26 against, and the village symbolically declared itself the "Duchy of Piddington."
