Hi all, I am asking for those who believe like me we were duped by the Government the leave the EU to sign the petition below and ask all your family and friends to also sign it.  None of the promises made by the Government in a recent study have come through and not only financially has the UK lost out financially but also our travel rights have been severely restricted.  A recent survey in the UK said that 9 out of 10 people would rejoin the EU yet the Government has just announced they are unwilling to do so, going against the wishes of the people - so please if you believe like me please sign the petition below and ask everyone you know to do so,  it takes a few minutes

Thank you

Is it April 1st already.

PS, i think the politicians are well aware Brexit has not delivered the benefits there could have been but that is due to the British EU loving politicians that are blocking any benefit.

I very much doubt that 9 out of 10 UK residents would wish to rejoin the EU. However, it does look like sir flip flop kneel a lot is trying his best to sneak the UK back in. 

If you compare the state of the economy in Germany & France with that of the UK the UK isn't doing so bad (at least before liebour) and this is before a potential trade war with the USA.

Just  left    court after getting  divorce  not you want to go back  in and rewrite  the terms of  divorce,  don't  think  it works  like that, but UK will  eventually  rejoin  in  some  form or  other but not for at least  10  years,  when Boris  is eventually  a multi millionaire  for peddling  lies and   unattainable  promises

It would not be up to the UK to rejoin, it would be up to the EU to let it. There are several countries that would veto the idea as they simply wouldn't trust UK to go through it all again when the government changes and apply to leave again. It only takes one country to veto it and that's it.

New rules are that new members, which UK would be, join Schengen and adopt the Euro, no opt outs available now and no government would do that.

There are many other reasons, not least because running a referendum in UK is very expensive and a government taking the risk of one that might fail would just be wasting money, not that any government seems averse to that. 

Then there's the fact the EU requires a 60 to 65 percent majority in favour of applying and, while many people think leaving was a mistake, I doubt that many would be in favour of rejoining. 

Still, nice fantasy for a Sunday morning.

We will rejoin,Thats a given,it’s just a question of timing.The older demographic that was easily fooled into voting leave is leaving the room and younger people are more open to the EU.It will take a generation and I don’t think I will see us rejoin in my lifetime.Brexit was only ever for fools and billionaires.
