Put Brexit on hold for 12 years and prioritise combating climate change instead.

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Of course Brexit needs finalising, but at this time our children's future is simply more important. Whilst the negotiations, debates and votes continue, the planet heats up and according to scientists, will be out of our control by 2030. Climate change is real and we only have 12 years to change.
