Prevent the PM’s plan to prorogue Parliament in order to force No Deal through.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Should the Prime Minister choose to prorogue Parliament now, members of Parliament will be unable to table legislation to prevent a No Deal Brexit; whilst prorogation before a Queen’s Speech is standard procedure, the timing makes this action undemocratic and not in the best interest of the country.
