We aim to achieve a Northern English, or Northumbrian constituent nation. We would like the government to hold a referendum on this so we can make sure that our voices are lifted up as much as the Welsh, Scots, and Englishman's. We want a referendum for devolution.

We would like the Government to do it as we believe the Northern English peoples have experienced mass traumas, and destruction of their culture by:

standardising Oxford English
Degrading Dialects
Deindustrialisation incorrectly
No different curriculums
We believe that if we can achieve devolution as one of our own nations, on par with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, we can achieve
We feel this is needed for the Northern English culture to Survive including local languages such as Northumbrian Scots and Cumbric.
