Petition Action

Undertake a judicial review of the lawfulness of delaying the UK's exit from EU.

Petition Details

The EU Bill received Royal Assent to become an Act of Parliament. This Act specifically legislated for exit from the EU at 11pm on March the 29th, and for an end of the supremacy of EU law in the UK. However, EU law still supersedes the UK's, and the UK is still in the EU. How is this legal?

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions which call for actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

It's not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament to bring or undertake a judicial review. You can find out more about how to bring a judicial review here:

The date of the UK's exit from the EU changed when the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (Exit Day) (Amendment) Regulations 2019 were passed, following votes in both Houses of Parliament.
