Hold a referendum on the UK's membership of the World Health Organization

Closed 169 signatures

What the petition asks

In the interest of democracy, fairness, equality, equity and rule of law we the people want the Government to hold a public referendum on the UK's continued membership of the World Health Organization. A leaflet providing full, transparent & honest information should be provided to all voters.
In the past the people were not consulted and their consent not gained for the UK's membership of the World Health Organization. We believe this is an error that requires correction. We believe the W.H.O is unaccountable and does not represent the people of Great Britain, and are concerned that UK's continued membership will allow outside forces to dictate or direct decisions regarding the health of the people, including the actions to take in a "pandemic" situation.
