Rejected petition Call a 2nd EU Referendum open to those from EU member states resident in the UK

Many UK residents could not vote in the EU referendum despite the fact they have lived/worked in the UK for years, contributed to the economy & paid UK taxes. The vote impacts them. Their voice should count. It is unfair & discriminatory to exclude UK residents from EU member states from voting.
