What the petition asks
Theresa May's deal falls short of that which was expected by voters in 2016 and to progress without consulting the public first would be disastrous.
Theresa May's deal falls short of that which was expected by voters in 2016 and to progress without consulting the public first would be disastrous.
Whether you voted to Leave or to Remain, the consensus among many is that a vote will solve the current deadlock in parliament and will give the people the chance to show their appreciation or execration for the deal.
Politicians have failed to find a solution, and many want it concluded, but with our political sphere stuck in a state of permanent disagreement, the only solution is to seek further direction from the public.
