ROME (Reuters) - Italy's opposition 5-Star Movement plans to re-run a vote that severed its ties with co-founder Beppe Grillo, its leader Giuseppe Conte said late on Monday.

The removal of Grillo from his role as party guarantor was one of a series of reforms agreed by 5-Star members on Sunday that were seen as turning what was once a radical protest movement into a more mainstream left-leaning force.
