What the petition asks
I would like to offer people the opportunity for a counter e-petition confirming the government acted correctly to suspend/prorogue Parliament. Prorogation happens every year. It is ended with the State Opening of Parliament.
It's the official term for a temporary suspension of the UK Parliament and to bring an end to the current session.
