Stop the Brexit madness!

I think the petition is not well thought through. 1) "We call on the EU and the UK to sign a research and innovation agreement as soon as possible." - Isn't such signing possible only after the UK has left the EU? Is the petition arguing that UK should leave EU ASAP? 2) "Science has been a key success of the EU and must remain a priority to keep Europe competitive. " Is this addressed to the EU that includes the UK, or only to the 27? The petition should be: Stop the Brexit madness! "No-deal" Brexit is insanity! Science in the UK and the rest of EU will suffer!

This petition should be directed to the UK government, who should take the lead to clearly define its position in many aspects after post Brexit relationships. Collaboration in science and inclusion of the UK as a member of Horizon Europe, should only be considered after agreement on other fundamental rights and financial commitments.

This petition is rather futile to be honest. Collaboration itself will unquestioningly continue. However, requesting the UK government to consider full researcher mobility between the UK and the rest of Europe is unrealistic. Migration and "control of borders" has been a major sticking point and likely one for the driving factors behing brexit. Whether you're for or against brexit, you can't escape the political realities behind it. Having mobility of researchers goes against the core of the brexit ideology. Reqesting an exception for research is simply not going to happen.

New referendum

I support the idea behind this petition. However, for the time being I'd prefer to support a new referendum allowing the British people betrayed by irresponsible campaigners like F&J to wake up.

Politics and science does not go together. Universities and companies will find each other and work together if necessary. They do not need the EU. The only thing the EU does is making things difficult.
