Brighton & Hove Independence Referendum - Leave UK, Stay in EU

The Issue

We, the citizens of Brighton and Hove, have emphatically stated our intention and desire to remain part of the EU.

We call upon all of our citizens and our local government to hold a referendum to declare ourselves independent of the United Kingdom so that we can choose our own path. If the people of England and Wales have the right to choose to separate from the EU, we reserve the right to disagree with their choice. 

A local referendum should be conducted to allow the same democratic process that has taken place to pull us out of the EU to enable citizens to decide their own future here in Brighton & Hove.
