Rejected petition Demand that David Cameron holds an EU referendum within the next 3 months

Bearing in mind the current urgent and worsening situation regarding illegal economic migrants and potential radical extremists from the Middle East/Africa, we demand that David Cameron holds an EU referendum within the next 3 months to let the British public decide on the future of our own country.

More details

David Cameron has continued to stall any decision about whether Great Britain should leave the EU, and "promises" a referendum will be held by the end of 2017. Bearing in mind the current urgent situation in Europe regarding illegal economic migrants and potential radical Islamic extremists/terrorists from the Middle East and Northern Africa, - the incoming flow of which continues unabated and no doubt will increase - we request that a referendum be held as a matter of urgency within the next 3 months to let the British public decide the future of our own country, which is now a matter of considerable seriousness.
