Suspend Brexit to deal with the Climate Emergency

Closed 178 signatures

What the petition asks

Young people and other Campaigners have mobilized to save the Planet. Their priority must be put first by British Parliament and the Electorate. We have run out of time to fight Brexit and should put it aside until we no longer face the irreversible Climate Changes just a decade away.
Climate Change is now an Urgent Crisis
It will take all of our political resolve to pull us back from the brink of the irrefutable damage it will cause.
Brexit is all consuming. It will not be easily or quickly resolved.
We do not have enough time to break the current impasse, carry out the necessary negotiations to Leave the EU without causing significant harm to our country and continent AND deal with the Climate Crisis.
The Climate Crisis MUST take priority.
