Commitment to General Election before start of EU exit negotiations.
The British people have voted to leave the European Union.
However, the Conservatives and other parties cannot claim an electoral mandate to negotiate the form our exit from the EU takes. We, the people, deserve to take back control of this and vote on policies for the negotiation.
This will be one of the largest constitutional changes in our history, no 2015 manifesto says how parties will act in this situation.
How much do we want to remain in the Common Market?
Do we want to retain freedom of movement?
How vital is the City's financial access?
How will EU based rights/regulations be re-written?
etc.
The referendum answered none of these. The only way to secure a mandate is through a General Election.
We call on Parliament to commit to this before negotiations start.
