What the petition asks
I would like the Government to seek to have UK join the Schengen area. I want the Government to do so because it should make movement across Europe a lot easier, which should help both EU and UK economy massively.
A lot of countries outside the EU control are still apart of the Schengen Area, like Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Lichtenstein.
In the modern society we need lot of connectivity and this is perfect for it.
