What the petition asks

Acknowledgement that the Prime Minister is honouring the result of the referendum by proroguing parliament to stop opposition MP's ignoring the will of the people in their constituencies.

We must leave on 31st October to uphold democracy
17.4 Million people voted to leave the EU and regain our sovereignty - Our members of parliament are ignoring our will as a nation - the real affront to democracy is those MP's that think they know better than the people they represent.
