This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition We demand a divorce from London and the corrupt parliament within it.
Over the past years, it has become clear that London, and more particularly the corrupt parliament held there, has nothing in common with the rest of the UK. It has also shown it total contempt for our democracy, our way of life and our future.
More details
For these and many other reasons, we demand that London be expelled from the UK and a new democratic capital be established to administer to the needs of the whole nation and not just a select few.
This unfortunate demand is brought about by our capital's continued attempts to betray Brexit, the peoples of the UK, and democracy. We voted to leave the EU; no negotiation, no compromise, no extended withdrawal. If London stays in the EU, it stays in alone.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the UK Government and Parliament to take a specific action.
We aren't sure what you mean by "a divorce from London".
You could start a new petition calling on the Government or Parliament to create regional Parliaments in place of the UK Parliament if that is something you want to see happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
