Petition Hold a UK referendum before joining any defence and security pact with the EU.
The UK Government is seeking a UK-EU security pact. We are concerned that such a decision could affect UK sovereignty and should be subject to a vote of the whole country before it can be implemented.
More details
Such a pact could require UK participation in:
• European Defence Fund
• PESCO
• European Defence Agency
• All binding legal commitments these structures require
• Security of Information Agreement on the ‘timely’ delivery of intelligence products between the UK’s intelligence agencies and the EU Intelligence Directorate.
