Petition Action

Revoke the UK’s Article 50 notice to leave the EU on 29/03/19.

Petition Details

The terms of the UK's departure from the EU have not been fully negotiated.

There's the risk of severe delays at seaports; no technical solution available to manage a customs border, or control the movement of people across the Irish border that doesn't offend the terms of the Belfast Agreement.

Additional Information

The Government states that it has received a firm mandate from the UK electorate to take steps to leave the EU. However, that mandate does not bind it to a ‘divorce’ on 29 March of this year.

The ECJ has confirmed that the Article 50 notice can be revoked by the UK Government, without a parliamentary vote. (Case C/621/18 Wightman & ors v SoS for Exiting the EU)

Art. 50 could be triggered again in the future, once current obstacles have been overcome.
