Petition Action

Hold a public consultation and referendum on proposed EU withdrawal agreement.

Petition Details

The results of todays indicative votes, combined with the fact the proposed withdrawal agreement has been rejected twice, make it clear that parliament is unable to find a consensus regarding Brexit.

This stalemate has gone on long enough. It's time for the UK electorate to take over.

Additional Information

In todays votes a call for a referendum to endorse any deal was rejected by 295 to 268 votes. However, this had more support than both votes on the proposed withdrawal agreement.

I propose:
1. Government revokes Article 50 or seeks a longer extension period, in order to hold a time-limited public consultation on the key points of the proposed withdrawal agreement.
2 Followed by a referendum to see if there is support for this proposal.
3. If there is not, we halt Brexit and stay in the EU.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

We have received a large number of petitions about a second referendum on EU membership, which are very similar to petitions that are already open. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one asking for the same thing to happen. You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

You might like to sign and share one or more of these petitions.
