Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament

Rejected petition Englad/Wales/N.Ireland to be included in a referendum on Scottish independence.

More details

The Scottish Government seems intent on holding a referendum for the Scottish people, asking them if they would like Scotland to stay a part of the United Kingdom, or if they would like to leave. If and when this referendum happens, the people of England, Wales and Northern Ireland should also have the chance to vote on this issue. A United Kingdom which does not include Scotland would affect the whole of the UK, not just Scotland.
