Stop all parliamentary pay until we leave the EU

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Today 2 April we see parliament having drinks paid for by the tax payer and then May saying yet another extension!
I propose that all parliamentary pay is stopped until parliament accept that a no deal is the only way to leave the EU and honor the UK public vote of 2016.
2016 Vote to leave EU, customs union, single market and ECJ 17.4m with 1.2+m majority
2017 new coalition Government with a manifesto to leave the EU on 29th March 2019
Three failed attempts to pass the EU treaty (May's Deal) now looking for a fourth desperate attempt to pass it again
Eu will not change this treaty not now or in the future
Note no deal is the only way of leaving the EU with complete independence, UK control and freedom to do unrestricted global trade deals

Why it was rejected

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