What the petition asks

The politicians have wasted time and tax payers money and still the decision over Brexit remains unresolved. Stop paying their salaries until a deal has been agreed and approved by parliament.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
