Hold a referendum to allow Northern England to claim independence

Petition Details

Northern England should be allowed to hold a referendum on whether we should claim independence from England and form our own country within the UK. Northern England is always forgotten about in the south including Downing Street. The government does not fund or maintain northern England properly.

Additional Information

We in northern England pay taxes, yet the south spends it. It is time to hold a referendum in Northern England !

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Your petition calls for independence for Northern England, but then refers to forming a new country as part of the UK.

We have already published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:

Hold a referendum on creating a Devolved Parliament for Northern England: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/555283

Hold on a referendum on an Independent North of England: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/556284

If you want the Government or House of Commons to take an action different to the above, you could start a new petition about this, but it would need to be clear what action you wanted the Government to take.
