What the petition asks
The vast majority of the great British public wanted us to regain control of our borders, having voted as such we now run the risk of installing a new leader with no such wishes.
The leading party must carry out the wishes of their electorate via their chosen party leader.
The leading party must carry out the wishes of their electorate via their chosen party leader.
Theresa May appears to want to delay the signing of article 50 to allow further dialogue with the Eu before then renegotiating the terms of our inclusion.
Having failed to tackle the problem of immigration in her post over the term to date of the government she now is belittling the importance of this major worry to the public.
Theresa May voted remain therefore she is not the answer to the leadership contest.
We need a leader staunch in their views regards border control.
