What the petition asks
The government, and it's parliament continue to refuse to invoke article 50 on the European Union, despite a majority of the people expressing their wishes through the democratic process of this country, which is in breach of article 61 of the Magna Carta.
If the government, and it's parliament cannot agree to leave the European Union, as requested by it's people, then they will continue to breach article 61 of the Magna Catra, so they should make provision for the election of a new parliament to replace themselves within 40 days.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
Article 50 was invoked on 29 March 2017, so we're not sure exactly what else you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
