Rejected petition Proroguing the UK parliament is an act against representative democracy.

The stated intention of Boris Johnson to prorogue parliament to force through brexit is contrary to the operation of a representative democracy and should not be allowed. Parliament must be allowed to scrutinize and vote on the details of any brexit agreement.
