Referendum changing the UK from constitutional monarchy to a democratic republic

Closed 2,884 signatures

What the petition asks

We think there should be a referendum on the future of the monarchy & the type of government they want to be part of. Stay as a constitutional monarchy or become a true & secular democratic republic. We think it's time we became a democratic republic, it's long overdue.
