Reverse EU withdrawal
As international law permits treaties such as the Withdrawal Agreement to be amended or repealed if parties agree, the UK and EU should both consider to reverse UK withdrawal before the standstill 'transition' period ends and in good time for the UK to vote in the next European elections.
(For background info see in particular Articles 39 and 54 of the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties.)
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
The UK left the European Union on the expiry of the Article 50 Treaty of the European Union (TEU) deadline at 11pm GMT on 31 January 2020 - not because of the Withdrawal Agreement. The Withdrawal Agreement only ensured that the UK left with a treaty relationship in place.
You would however be welcome to start a new petition calling for the Government to begin negotiations on rejoining the EU under Article 49 TEU, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
