Rejected petition Referendum on the UK leaving the EU

More details

I request a referendum to be put to the people of the united kingdom on the withdrawal of membership of the EU formally known as the EEC. I am invoking article 50 of the Lisbon treaty. I want our country to have free trade under EFTA and not have the blood sucked out of us by the EU.
