Rejected petition Commence the UK's withdrawal from the EU and Single Market immediately.

With the recent delays encountered in the Supreme Court we, the public, demand that the Government be given authority to leave the EU and any other such body within the EU it deems necessary.

More details

We have been victims of a small number of people/groups wishing to delay, over-turn or halt the UK's withdrawal from the EU. This is creating uncertainty and creating doubt and damage to the economy. Lets stop this now and allow the Government to do the job we have given them a mandate for.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The House of Commons is currently considering the European Union (Notification of Withdrawal) Bill, which gives the Prime Minister authority to notify, under Article 50(2) of the Treaty on European Union, the United Kingdom’s intention to withdraw from the EU.

You can follow the progress of the Bill here:

We're therefore not sure what additional action you'd like the Government or Parliament to take.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
