Rejected petition MPs to call for a General Election before Article 50 is triggered.
So many people are now realising the implications of their Brexit vote. Promises made by the Brexit vote leaders are already unravelling. Project Fear is proving to be Project Fact. Newly elected MPs will have a democratic and more recent mandate for the Government to act on than the referendum.
More details
We want 'Remain' MPs to put our country first, setting aside matters of party, and even their own political ambitions, to combine to call for a General Election before Article 50 is triggered, and thereafter to campaign on this single issue.
