Rejected petition The North of England Should be Independent or have more Autonomy.

More details

We feel that London and the South East of England has lost touch with the North. We have been stripped of natural resources, our manufacturing industries have been taken away with no substitute and we are ridiculed by a London based Media. We are a hinterland, unloved and dismissed by the Capital. It is time to go it alone, or at least have a greater amount of Autonomy than at present. We are no longer a United Kingdom.
