Rejected petition Hold a General Election before invoking Article 50 and leaving the EU.

Following the narrow victory for the leave campaign, we believe the British public should have a say in who negotiates our exit, not just member of the Conservative party. This can only be achieved by holding a General Election before article 50 is invoked.

More details

Given recent revelations regarding the funds available to the NHS, restrictions on free movement and guarantees of entry to the single market, we would also propose that parties be allowed to run on a "no-Brexit" platform as it is becoming increasingly clear that the benefits of leaving the EU were significantly overplayed throughout the campaign.
