Rejected petition Call for a referendum for the UK to become part of the United States of America.

To call for a referendum for the uk to become part of the United States of America. The people of the UK and the USA speak the same language and are extremely similar in beliefs and values. So why don't we make our special relationship a more permanent and meaningful fixture.

More details

I would like the government to allow a referendum to the citizens of the United Kingdom.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Joining of the United States of America would be a matter for the US Congress to decide, and not something the UK Government or Parliament could unilterally do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
