Closed Hold a referendum on independence for London

Closed on

Unlike the rest of the UK, London is predominantly Labour and the whole of London voted to remain in the EU. We are no longer philosophically in step with the rest of the UK. We suggest that London be afforded the opportunity to declare independence, or become part of Scotland, in a referendum.

London: housing crisis, Muslim Labour mayor, diverse and younger population, voted remain unanimously
Rest of UK: predominantly Conservative, voted for leaving the EU, affordable housing still exists
