Rejected petition Do not change the voting rules and allow another EU referendum to take place.

The rules of the referendum were clear, majority vote wins. Leave won by over one million votes. Remain cannot then decide they are not happy with the result and ask for the rules on voting to be changed in order for them to win, in doing so would make a mockery of our democracy.

More details

Scotland had one of the highest shares of remain votes but now they want another referendum for independence, so if you discount their votes Leave wins by a larger majority.
