Accept the offer to Join the EU Joint Procurement Agreement.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The EU scheme uses the EU's joint procurement agreement, to help member countries acquire the medical supplies needed to tackle cross-border pandemics.

The UK was invited last week to join but declined saying they were not in the EU.

I believe the Government is putting it's own interests i.e. Looking bad to its Brexit voters, above the countries in a time of National Emergency.
