This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Prevent resignation from EU until after a general election.

Stop the government invoking article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty until such time as a party manifesto detailing any BREXIT plans has been approved by the electorate through means of a general election.

More details

The current Conservative manifesto details no plans on how to handle an exit of membership of the European Union. Therefore, they have no mandate on how to handle negotiations to effect a BREXIT.
