Hertfordshire has only eleven MPs representing the people of Hertfordshire within Westminster Palace. Further, this government has a powerful part of its legislator completely undemocratically appointed (the House of Lords), governing the laws applicable to the people of Hertfordshire.

I suggest we have a referendum in Hertfordshire to become an independent state, allowing them to set their own laws democratically. As part of Hertfordshire’s independence, only those born in Hertfordshire would have the right to live and work in the county – all others would need a visa. All goods and services entering and leaving the county would be subject to a levy, greatly enriching the people of Hertfordshire and giving the people of Hertfordshire sovereignty over their own affairs.

To become independent at least 50% of Hertfordshire’s population would need to vote in favour of independence. As part of the vote leave campaign, they could post the amount of money (tax) the people of Hertfordshire would avoid paying to central government on the side of a red bus.

So if I moved there with my family in the 1960's at the age of 3 I would have no rights but the many illegal immigrants smuggled into the county and have since given birth would have total civilian ship ?
Go for it, Hymie!

Here in Suffolk, we made a unilateral declaration of independence about ten years ago but nobody seems to have noticed it yet ;-)
Beware the UK reaction which would be Heartless.

I’m expecting TTT & NJ to post in support of this proposal, especially as it gives Hertfordshire sovereignty, such that they are no longer subject to the laws of this undemocratic body which includes an unelected chamber passing laws to which the citizens of Hertfordshire are subject.
in Hexit, the people of hertfordshire would be left with train services on 4 major main rail lines with train franchises let by an outside agency (Westminster) over which they have no control or say. how would hexit resolve this conundrum?

Except for Buenchico, there seems very little support for my Hexit proposal – but over 50% of the UK population voted for Brexit based on very similar supposed benefits to the UK.
think that one fell flat hymie.
maybe stick to the old chestnut's ...crown symbol on glasses, blue passports and road signs plus of course queues at Dover and airports
And you think you'd prosper exporting to other nations ? Good luck with that.
Yes its a pointless comparison isnt it oldgeezer
"over 50% of the UK population voted for Brexit based on very similar supposed benefits to the UK."

What percentage of your county would vote to leave the UK?

What about acquisition of citizenship through residency?

How would imposing a levy on goods leaving the County help? If the receiving country also imposed a levy, would the increased price not reduce sales?

Not sure it's been thought through properly.

Maybe I’ll ask Farage & Boris to support my campaign, to get things moving.

Much like Brexit, when the people of Hertfordshire vote for Hexit, they won’t know what they are voting for.
Hear hear!
