This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Hold a referendum following negotiations with the EU about our membership.

A referendum was held in June 2016 about Britain's membership of the European Union. Nobody who voted on then could possibly have known what life outside the EU would actually look like. Acceptance or rejection of the outcome is required, when negotiations have taken place.

More details

The British people have absolutely no idea what is on the other side of the door marked Brexit, but we have no idea at all of what is on the other side. The huge range of possibilities makes a referendum essential.
