Implement the will of the British people as instructed in the EU referendum.

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

The British people, by a good margin, instructed the Government to LEAVE the EU. That instruction was to ensure we were freed from EU interference and that the promised limits on immigration could be implemented, while our fishing grounds were repatriated and security enhanced by border control.
The PM has deferred taking action and Government indecision is creating uncertainty in the markets. This is exacerbated by the turmoil in Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition. There is a need to be seen to be in control and moving swiftly to implement the decision of the people. Action cannot wait until the Autumn.
