Petition · past parliament

Hold a 2nd referendum to confirm the agreed EU exit terms before article 50.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

The referendum on whether Britain should remain or leave the EU was seriously flawed, because the terms of the exit are unknown. Therefore while accepting the democratic decision, there should be a second referendum to confirm the decision when the exit terms are known before article 50 is taken.
