This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Tax the 17.4 million to pay for the cost of Brexit.
The 48.6 million who didn't vote for Brexit should not have to contribute to the cost and should be compensated for loosing their EU citizenship, freedom of movement, jobs, homes, workers rights etc.
More details
This measure may help to bring the country together as Brexiters would get what they voted for and also have a chance to contribute towards it. Remainers would feel less hard done by if they didn't have to pay towards Brexit and were also able to claim compensation for everything they had lost.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We can't accept your petition because it's not the UK Government or Parliament's responsibility to tax people on the basis of their political beliefs. In any case, it would not be possible to do so because voting in the United Kingdom is secret.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
