Petition Action

A constitution that forbids our Parliament ceding sovereignty to foreign powers.

Petition Details

This would prevent governments gradually ceding sovereignty to foreign powers as they have done for example over the last 44 years to the EU treaty by treaty.

Additional Information

'If parliament transfers sovereignty away in treaties such as Lisbon then it is stealing rights that don't belong to it because an MP is lent powers of the public for 5 years

But if in those 5 years you give it away to somebody else then you can't repeal those laws. This is a theft of public rights.'
