Residents of Piddington, a British town, have held a symbolic referendum on independence and are considering appealing to the U.S. to become the 51st state. Their decision comes in response to the British government's plan to house 1,250 male asylum seekers at a facility near the town. The referendum saw 285 residents vote for 'leaving the UK and self-determination', against 26, with one ballot spoiled. The council has already sent a letter to Donald Trump and a dossier to the US embassy.
