Form a new economic only European Union as a credible alternative to the EU/EEA

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

The EU wont reform, so we need to lead from the front and create a new union for any other European country who simply wants free trade while retaining their sovereignty. This will give us a carrot with which to tempt away other disgruntled EU states, and a stick to help our Brexit negotiations. KBO
