Rejected petition The UK/EU Brexit deal to be approved by a referendum: other choice staying in EU
Rejected on
The Brexit deal between the UK and EU will govern our lives for decades. But it will not have been subject to a referendum, or discussed in a general election. Unless it is approved by another referendum, against the status quo of staying in the EU, it will have no legitimacy.
