Rejected petition Reject the petition asking for a second referendum on the membership of the EU.

The democratic process is the foundation of governance in the UK. On June 23, the majority of voters made the decision to leave the European Union. There is now a popular petition demanding a second referendum. This directly perverts the democratic process and, as such, has no place in the UK.
