This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition English referendum on leaving the UK. Thus automatically withdrawing us from EU.
Scotland and Northern Ireland have had several referenda on being part of the UK. England is the only country not to have had such a vote.
If we have another referendum, it should be on our independence. If successful this would trigger the entire UK’s departure from the EU with immediate effect.
More details
Due to recent events in parliament, it is clear the union cannot go on the way it is. It was always going to be a choice between our union, and the European Union - remainers have made that clear.
The English people should finally get a vote on independence from the UK. With a majority this would disband the Acts of Union (which would happen if any UK country voted for independence). This would automatically end our membership of the EU.
To the PM:
Please consider this option and get us out.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Decisions on continuing member states of the EU is a matter for the European Union.
In any case, we're not sure what you would like to happen to Wales in the scenario in your petition.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
