Rejected petition Take account of the wishes of those who will have to live longest with EU result

Following the EU referendum on 23 June 2016, the UK voted to leave the EU by a narrow margin. However, voters aged under 45, who will have to live with this decision for the longest time, showed a desire to remain.

More details

As the referendum is only advisory and the result is not legally binding, I ask that, as the result was close, the government take into account the wishes of those who will have to live longest with the decision and not invoke Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty.
