Petition Hold a referendum to allow Northern England to claim independence.

Northern England is always the most underfunded out of everywhere in the UK. We in northern England pay taxes, yet it is always the south that spends it. We have the worst public transport system in the UK, and many other services including the NHS receive the smallest amount of funding in England.

More details

Northern England should be allowed to hold a referendum on whether we should claim independence from England and form our own country within the UK.

Northern England is always forgotten about in the south including Downing Street. The government does not fund or maintain northern England properly as it should.

We in northern England pay taxes, yet the south spends it. It is time to hold a referendum in Northern England !
