What the petition asks
People voted for brexit thinking it would be done in an orderly fashion with an input from everyone in parliament, not by a committee created by an unelected prime minister. Brexit should be done with everyone in mind, no one asked for a crippled pound and a damage to the economy.
The European Single Market enables free trade within the EU, helping 26 million UK businesses and access to a market worth over £9 trillion. Membership of the single market would allow us to enjoy the same trade benefits and support British companies even after we have left the EU. Continued tariff-free trade will preserve confidence in the British economy, but with Theresa May's current plan, it would require leaving the block, our economy will go down and the working/middle class will suffer.
