Stop paying all financial contributions to the EU immediately.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Britain buys from the EU countries twice what they buy from us.
Are they going to stop doing business with us if we leave now?
Our politicians need to create difficulties to justify their jobs.
Stopping the money for Brussels will bring Brexit into focus and show how simple it all is.

Why it was rejected

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

The UK is still a member of the EU, so we're not sure exactly what action you'd like the Government to take.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a petition asking the Government not to agree to any deal for exiting the EU if it required the UK to make a payment to the EU.
