Petition London Independence
More details
For the British Government to give the people of London a referendum on whether they want more powers for the London Assembly or "Devo Max" or to become independent.
Ken Livingstone told the Evening Standard that “he will use “amazing charm and subtlety” to get New York-style independence for the capital and said “I would actually declare independence and run the whole city. They can’t even run hospitals in London. Everything government does in London it gets wrong. If you look at the city of New York, the mayor runs the benefits system, some of the prisons even, and the healthcare and schools.”
