Rejected petition Hold a referendum on joining the USA, or becoming independent from the UK.

Debate the option of a referendum which gives residents in all the countries of United Kingdom 3 choices:

1. Remain a member of the United Kingdom.
2. ⁠Become Independent.
3. ⁠Become a member of the United States of America.

More details

Due to the ongoing dissatisfaction of the current and previous Governments such as infringements on freedom of speech, handling of the Chagos islands, Border Control, fabrication of CV’s, Free Gear, Winter Fuel Payments, Failure to deliver on election pledges, two tier justice system, Positions on EU/WHO/WEF/ECHR etc etc

Voters are looking to the USA in awe of the transparent strong, honest style of leadership. The residents of all UK countries deserve better.

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 unilaterally do.

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