Rejected petition Repeal the European Communities Act 1972

We the people call on the Government to repeal the European Communities Act 1972 instead of invoking Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty so we can control our Brexit from the European Union rather than leaving it to the EU to decide our terms of exit. We also call on MEPS to be involved in the process.
