Petition · past parliament

Form an emergency coalition government to negotiate leaving the EU.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

The UK just voted to leave the EU. This is a huge political challenge and one that should be carried out with a fair representation of the electorate. No single party can fairly represent the whole of the UK.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Following the vote to leave the EU, please form a Government of National Unity
