Allow England and Wales to secede from the United Kingdom

Petition Details

The UK as a whole voted in a referendum to leave the EU. To avoid uncertainty and concomitant negative impact on the economy, allow our Scottish/NI allies to remain in the EU as wished and to win time for orderly negotiations, England and Wales should begin proceedings to exit the UK.

Additional Information

Although the first is non-binding, it is unlikely that a second referendum will be held. Those parts of the UK that voted to leave the EU should be allowed to do so. It is undemocratic for England to remove Scotland/NI from the EU against their will. There will be a prolonged period of negotiation/instability in no-one's interest. It is simpler for the UK to remain in the EU having already met the criteria and England's negotiation to leave the UK would thereafter be a purely national matter.
