Breconsider – 2nd EU referendum to approve the new relationship with Europe

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

We call on the Government not to invoke Article 50 and start the formal exit process from the EU until a provisional framework for the UK's new relationship with our European partners has been agreed by Parliament and that framework has been endorsed by the British people in a second referendum.
This proposal will enable the people to make a final decision on the UK's membership of the EU with clarity on the alternative and the implications for all the nations of the UK
