Extend Article 50, delay Brexit and hold a new referendum or a General Election.

Closed 1,033 signatures

What the petition asks

The 2016 referendum was based on misinformation and the results were marginal (17m vs 16m and 13m abstentions). Progressing with Brexit without giving the public a further vote risks dangerous division in the country and economic disaster.
