UK Gov to seek trade deal equivalent to pre 1993 EEC and not sever links with EU
The 2016 ref ballot did not refer to leaving Single Market or Customs Union. We were part of these or their equivalent prior to EU membership so leaving them should not be part of any post Leave arrangement. UK Gov has no mandate to spoil relationship with EU or destroy our economy in a bad deal
In 2016, by very small majority, the UK voted to 'leave the EU'. The EU has existed since 1993 and the UK had a previous relationship with the EEC that does not fall under our EU membership. Other non-EU nations enjoy similar relationships now without membership so 'leave the EU' cannot mean to completely end our pre-existing agreements with the EU states. To do so has been predicted to be economically disastrous, so we must not take that unmandated step. We should aim for an EEC level deal.

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 Single Market came into full operation in 1993, so we're not sure what relationship with the EU you're proposing.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
