What the petition asks
On 23/06/16 Scotland voted to stay part of the EU. 62% of voters wanted to stay in. However, because the English voted to leave, we are being forced out. The Scottish government has discussed an independence referendum, which needs to be ratified by Westminster. We request the UK government accepts.
