This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Independent inquiry into the circumstances surrounding Brexit and lies told.
We would like government and cross parliamentary support for an Independent inquiry into the lies told by politicians, public speakers, influencers, journalists in relation to Brexit and the EU and what affect those lies had and still have on the British peoples opinion of the EU.
More details
Many lies were told and still continue to be told when politicians, public speakers, influencers are asked about the European Union and Brexit. Some of the media let these lies go unchallenged and even support them.
It is about time that we have a fully independent public inquiry into how this country has reached this point. We want this inquiry to go as far back as the 1970s so we can reach a real understanding of how we got to this point.
