Petition Northern Ireland should be allowed a vote on independence

The UK and Irish Governments should work together to ensure the people of NI can vote on whether they want to be an independent nation.

More details

N Ireland has a history inextricably linked to the UK and Ireland. 20-30% of people in the recent census align with being Northern Irish, not Irish or British. These people should be heard and allow N Ireland to move away from its historical dependency on Ireland or UK.
