What the petition asks

Hold a public inquiry to examine potential US influence in UK politics. We want the inquiry to investigate financial and other forms of support from the US for political figures and groups in the UK, as well as possible US influence during the Brexit Referendum.
Reports indicate that prominent groups in the US with significant financial resources have been actively encouraging, supporting, and funding political activists and activity, including anti-EU supporters, in the UK.
