This petition is now at over 17K signatures.

Sign and share!

We need a thorough inquiry into Russian interference in our democracy, and accountability for those involved.

Sign, repost and share this petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy.

We know Russian influence played a role in Brexit, but the Tory government didn't allow a full investigation.

It's time we had one!

Individuals and families across the country are struggling with rising energy bills, food prices, and the cost of living. Rejoining the EU's Internal Electricity Market would save families £370 million a year.

Brexit has left us economically weaker, more isolated, and in the position of taking rules instead of shaping them. To restore our prosperity and global influence through shared sovereignty, we need to #RejoinEU

We’ve been fighting for an inquiry into Russian interference with @carolinelucas.bsky.social since 2020.

After today’s sentencing of Nathan Gill, what more evidence does government need?

The UK has fallen behind the EU on climate policies, but cooperating with the EU could achieve cheaper bills, healthier communities, and a thriving natural world. As COP30 comes to a close tomorrow, we’re calling on the Government to team up with the EU to save our planet @carolinelucas.bsky.social

“…it’s time to address the elephant in the room of British politics. It is one that everyone else can see across Europe; and opinion polls tell us the public is way ahead of Westminster. To paraphrase James Carville, it’s the Brexit, silly.”
Why 'it's the Brexit, stupid' should be the political slogan of our times
As Chancellor Rachel Reeves prepares the Budget, she’s missing an estimated £40 billion a year in tax revenues because the UK left the European Union

Last week the commander of border security could not give any examples of Brexit helping secure our borders and the DG of the B of E said that Brexit would have a negative effect for the foreseeable future. 🤦‍♂️

It’s time to undo the damage for a better future.

New figures by the Bank of England demonstrate how much of a negative impact Brexit has had on the UK economy. Trade weakness combined with uncertainty has decreased our GDP, Investment, Employment, and Productivity, resulting in a negative decline for the UK compared to our European neighbours.

Sewage was dumped into the Mersey 1,900 times in 2024. Since leaving the EU, the UK has slipped on water and air standards while Europe pushes ahead with tougher protections.
