Sensiblexit: leavers and remainers revoke article 50 for some breathing space.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Sensiblexit: nobody knows what the public, or parliament, or the EU want; so why not buy more time for us ALL to decide - without 'running down the clock' ?

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure how you want "us all to decide" about Brexit.

If you would like Article 50 to be revoked followed at some point by a referendum on the UK's future relationship with the EU you might like to sign this petition instead:

Revoke Article 50 then hold a referendum on our future relationship with the EU
