This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition No to a second EU referendum. It was a democratic vote, the people have spoken!
The leave side won under democratic rules as they gained the majority with not only winning by a few hundred thousand voters but by a staggering 1,269,501. If this vote was done by constituencies the leave side would have won the majority with 270 out of 382. A 2nd referendum would be undemocratic!
More details
Just because the remain side lost democratically does not allow them to have the chance of another referendum. When a party wins a general election every voter who chose another party has to accept that vote as the majority of the country wanted something else! The remain side need to accept that more of the UK population wanted a leave vote!
