Rejected petition Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Newcastle to secede from the UK.

Should the UK leave the European Union, the north's four major cities should be allowed to vote on their own fates, being able to join the EU either as one or separate countries with their own sovereignty and in control of their own destinies.

More details

All four cities voted to remain in the EU. Leaving the EU will have detrimental effects on all.
