We the undersigned fully condemn the Prime Ministers 17th January Brexit speech.

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

The Prime Minister has announced that the exit by the UK will be made on the worst possible terms. Government will take us out of the single market and the Prime Minister lied when she claimed that all British citizens supported this. We do not and we condemn a PM who would lie in this manner.

During the campaign for Leave those involved in the campaign, including Daniel J. Hamman, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage all stated their belief that the UK should remain a member of the single market. The government was elected on a manifesto that stated the UK would remain in the single market.

16,141,241 people voted against leaving. Recent polling by the Sunderland Echo showed increasing support towards remaining in the European Union.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
