Since when did planes bring in water, electricity, telecommunications infrastructure?
Simply disconnecting London from one of those three would see it destroyed within a day to a week.

Why not quote the rest of my post, I would be fairly certain everyone else will be ****ed at is, and not be fact that we also destroyed the current government in this process.
If we dontgo through with it we're a laughing stock.
Well if we were turning to the realms of fantasty or civil war then yes they could. But I don't think the country has quite got to that point. We still have leadership in our government...oh wait, well we have our other parties that will rally the troops, they have strong...oh no that's not quite true either...
Should we start a fantasy petition on whether we start a civil war or not? I'm surprised it hasn't already been done on twitter
No, i know it is all hypothetical and i don't for one minute thing London will or should become a city state. It just amuses me that the reason they wouldn't do it is because "the rest of England would turn the lights and water off"
Tried looking up the author, but can only find reference to a blogger on climate change. What position does Dr North have within parliament?
Yes, I just can't work out why.
London leaving the uk to make itself independent is a far bigger thing compared to the uk leaving the EU, the rest of England relies on London as much as London relies on the rest of England. (even if london does not think so)
I think it should never have gotten this far, the government needed to diversify the country with a spread of economic centers instead of being so london centric.
how will they be held responsible? That just makes no sense at all, it was a secret ballot for start.
No matter which way you voted, this is still relevant and worth signing... https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/128217
Surprisingly they can store water in large containers these days, electricity can be made by generators running on fuel which also can be stored in containers. Then there's these wonderful things called satellites which transfer information these days.
I think the problem is that they already act like they are, this is why the rest of the country has an issue. Our problem is that the people we elect all dwell within London.
Maybe Londoners votes should have more say as they obviously know best
My perception as well.
Just the notions behind people thinking that london could go it alone when it simply can't, it relies on the rest of the united kingdom to function. Although it would not think that if questioned.
WTF

Wow and you really believe that as well, we couldn't possibly have similar or better skilled people living anywhere else in the country.
How condescending
yes, but that all requires time to setup, land to put it on, which if london went it alone it would not have if the rest of england decided to instantly cut them off.
perhaps you're easily manipulated by the media... top tip - some Barnsley yokles on Channel 4 don't necessarily represent the views of the several million people who voted for leave... but they do provide a target for a bunch of the more butthurt remain supporters to vent at and try to convince themselves that everyone who voted leave was an idiot and made the 'wrong' choice.

Why has there been deafening silence from Gove, BJ and Farage? Apart from retracting what they claimed during the campaign.
Sorry not trying to take you out of context.
It wasn't me that suggested that freedom of movement would continue it was a conservative leave MP. It was Farage that said the 350mil claim was a mistake.
Maybe we will get control of movement, maybe we wont, who knows maybe the EU will just grant free trade at low cost, maybe not. Lot's of uncertainty at the moment.
ROFL in less than a week you have gone from yay we want Britain back ! to wanting to go to war with London.
