The 'Leave the EU without a deal in March 2019' petition states: "We are wasting billions of pounds of taxpayers' money trying to negotiate in a short space of time.

"Leaving the EU in March 2019 will allow the UK good time to negotiate more efficiently. The EU will be more eager to accept a deal on our terms having lost a major partner."
