I was reading an article on the high possibility of him resigning in the Financial Times … so it would seem that he is going to resign.

He told the upper house of parliament that his government had a mandate to lead until 2006 and it would do so.

It would appear that i either slightly misread things, jumped the gun or both.
Here's an interesting stat for you though....since WW II Italy has seen 59 separate governments, which is nearly one every 12 months.
Hmm, i'm glad things aren't that unstable here but i guess it must work for them some how.
