Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

The UK has recently voted to leave the European Union, It is clear what people have voted against. It is not clear, however, what they have voted for. Any Brexit deal will have significant constitutional implications for the UK so any such deal should be subject to agreement by the people.
Any such referendum should be a straight choice between the proposed Brexit deal and maintaining the status quo, i.e. remaining within the European Union.
