This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Take immediate steps to repeal the European Communities Act of 1972 .
In 1972 HMG passed this Act into Law.
Not only was this carried out with no reference to the electorate, but was also deceitful in that while HMG claimed that there would be "no loss of Sovereignty", the Act effectively transferred the primacy of British Law to the EU commission.
