What the petition asks
Mainland Denmark is in the EU, whilst devolved Greenland and Faroe Islands are in Denmark but not in the EU. Great Britain and Northern Ireland are in the UK and therefore the EU, while the Isles of Jersey, Guernsey and Man are in the British Isles but not in the UK or the EU.
Areas of England and Wales that wish to leave the EU, could devolve out of the UK (and therefore the EU), whilst remaining in the Kingdom of the British Isles. We would all still be British citizens under the Queen and sovereign parliament in Westminster.
London, NI and Scotland could remain in the EU.
This would be cheaper, simpler, more flexible and quicker than Brexit.
We request that the UK government hold a referendum on all realistic options for the relationship between the UK and the EU.
