I have made numerous posts on this today as have a small minority who have done so also.
My view is that however well intentioned those are that do sign this petition are I fear that the inclusion of non UK resident signatures may in the long run be detrimental and detract from the validity of said document. My jadedness as to to this political tactic is born of living and voting in one of the most tumultuous arenas in US politics- IL/Chicago/CookCounty- a petition of this type would be immediately suspect, then disseminated and subsequently invalidated. In the long term at worst this could possibly taint the entire thrust of the argument. I of course support our fellow vapers I write this only in the hope that we do not hang ourselves. The way to hell being paved and all. I am including two options from an email received today.
