Hold a parliamentary vote on the whether or not the UK leaves the EU

Petition Details

The result of the 23 June 2016 referendum on Britain's EU membership was NOT legally binding; it was advisory.

We the undersigned believe in parliamentary sovereignty. We believe MPs should vote on whether or not we leave the EU - and be responsible and accountable for the outcome of this vote.
