Target: Facebook
Region: United Kingdom
Result:
This petition is now closed.
Background (Preamble):
This group is a petition to Facebook to Create Proper UK County Networks.
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=21146759416
In doing so, FB will finally be recognizing the UK as a nation (we are currently listed as Great Britain).
At the moment, USA and Canada have State Networks, with major towns associated with each network. Yet in our list, there is one county listed (West Midlands) and (apart from Wales) the rest are a few cities. There is no Network for England or Scotland and poor old Northern Ireland has been relegated to 'networks elsewhere'.
It is a big mess and, despite being continuously asked to sort it out, Facebook has left it that way for several years.
