Ensure the UK participates in the elections to the European Parliament

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Prime Minister Theresa May has demonstrated that she will use the European elections to try to force a false choice between her deal (the Withdrawal Agreement that has been rejected three times by Parliament) and a catastrophic no deal (rejected twice).

We demand this stops immediately.
With the Brexit process in chaos, and a real risk of a catastrophic no deal, we will not be held to ransom by the Prime Minister trying to force her deal through, against nearly everyone in the country's wishes.

Parliament must immediately pass legislation requiring Theresa May to request a long extension to, or to revoke, the Brexit process so that we can decide through democratic means which form of Brexit - or of none - is best.

We demand our democratic vote in the European Elections.
