Petition Action

Hold a referendum on EU membership before or at general election not in 2017

Additional Information

We ask that the government holds an in-out referendum of membership of the European Union before or at the time of the next general election, rather than in 2017 as proposed.

Anyone under the age of 60 has not had a chance to vote on membership of this organisation, which has changed unrecognisably since it's beginnings as the EEC.

We demand that the government call a referendum on this so that whichever party wins the next election will have a clear mandate on this issue.

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.
