Rejected petition Ignore the result of the EU referendum and leave the decision to Parliment.

As MP David Lammy stated, the referendum is non-binding. Given that the population was lied to about one of the biggest decisions of their lives (e.g. regarding the true cost of EU membership) and given how close the result was, the decision should be left to the well-informed members of Parliament.
