A UKIP petition demanding a referendum on Britain's membership of the EU has been launched in the biggest-ever call to arms on the right to have a say over Europe.

People will be given the chance to sign up to the petition online, by post or in the street at UKIP stalls in Wigan and St Helens run by party supporters.

UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said: "This is a real chance for the people of Great Britain to show whoever forms the next Government that they are sick of being lied to and that they want a say over our continuing membership of the European Union.

"The Labour Party, Tories and Lib Dems have all lied about their intentions to hold a referendum and now UKIP wants to show that they have been listening to these lies and now wants to hold these parties to account.

"I urge everyone to sign the petition online, or by sending back a form delivered through their letterbox using the freepost address. They will even be able to print off more from the website to give to their family and friends who may not have the internet.

"We want to send a message loud and clear to the next Government of Great Britain that the people are not prepared to be ignored and demand that they be given their say."
