Rejected petition Allow all UK residents to vote on referendums and general elections

The EU referendum did not include the vote of lots of people that live and pay taxes in the UK for more than 5 years. This referendum has profound effects on all the European people resident in the UK. This is not a democratic system and must be reconsidered.
