Rejected petition Save the Union

More details

We request HM Government to introduce a referendum in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland to confirm that these nations wish to remain within the Union of the United Kingdom. These matters should not be left to the time and convenience of nationalist parties like the SNP and the British Government should resolve this debate now by taking the initiative with a UK wide poll.
