What the petition asks
The case for Brexit was mis-sold to the British electorate. We notion that parliament should vote against invoking article 50 of the Lisbon treaty to:
- Preserve the unity of the United Kingdom
- Prevent recession in the UK and overseas
- Prevent a potential domino effect within the EU
- Preserve the unity of the United Kingdom
- Prevent recession in the UK and overseas
- Prevent a potential domino effect within the EU
The world is unstable enough as it is. We need more cooperation, not less
