Godspeed UK, as we are failing with the ECI this UK petition may be our last immediate chance.

The UK has 17 days to act!

I wouldn't write the ECI off as failed just yet. Some recent videos from a few big youtubers brought a new momentum to it, we jumped from 45% to 57% in ~3 days.

UK isn't even in the EU.

Or is the Buy European thing valid for everything located in the europe?
