Petition Action

Adopt Northern Ireland Only Backstop

Petition Details

The DUP has adopted a dogmatic position of rejecting being temporarily kept in the EU single market since this would lead to divergence of treatment among the countries of Great Britain. The decision is not theirs alone to make.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

The UK cannot unilaterally adopt a Northern Ireland Only Backstop, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, for example to negotiate with the EU about adopting this arrangement after Brexit, if that's what you want to happen.
