Rejected petition Referendum on radical EU treaty amendment embodied in European Council Decision 2011/199/EU of March 25th 2011

More details

In view of the Foreign Secretary's public claim that the European Union Act 2011 "hands back democratic control of the way the EU is developing to the British electorate", in his article published in the Sunday Telegraph of July 24th 2011, the radical EU treaty amendment embodied in the European Council Decision 2011/199/EU of March 25th 2011 should be put to a national referendum, notwithstanding the restrictions on referendums laid down in that Act.
