Rejected petition Hold a referendum on the dissolution of the British union.

Whether you support remaining in or leaving the European Union, Westminster has shown that it is completely incapable of governing the United Kingdom.

There has never been a better time to ask the British people if they truly believe in a United Kingdom.

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.

We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure what you mean by "dissolution of the British union." If would be for the countries of the UK to decide if they would like independence individually.

If you would like a referendum on independence for Scotland or England, or a border poll in Northern Ireland, you could sign one of these petitions:

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/235096

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241028

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/231563

You could start a petition on Welsh independence if that's something you would like to see happen. You could also start a petition calling for simultaneous referendums in all nations of the UK.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
