We demand a referendum for Welsh Independence from the U.K. and E.U.
Wales has been under English rule since 1536 and its no less a need and a priority for our nation to regain its Independence as England very recently has from the European Union, bearing in mind that the Welsh people were never given the vote for the 1536 Act of Union/Annexation imposed on them.
We are mindful of the fact that Independence is actively being sought in Scotland, who did sign an Act of Union with England, and is also being debated in the case of England, we therefore feel strongly that Wales has also the just right to demand back our Independence and Sovereignty as a nation. We are aware that Plaid Cymru is pursuing a campaign for 'Independence within Europe' but, our aim is for this petition to clarify the need for Wales to have Independence from both U.K. and the E.U.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

If Wales became independent, it would then be up to the Welsh Government and the EU Member states to negotiate any position it may have with the EU.
