Rejected petition MPs & Electoral Commission to review misleading referendum campaign claims

This petition contends that the EU referendum was campaigned in a deliberately misleading manner and that the result should therefore be evaluated prior to Article 50 being triggered.

If it is found that EU referendum campaigns were deliberately misleading, the result should be reviewed.

While this petition respects the democratic process in the United Kingdom, the foundation of a true democracy is honest campaigning such that voters are properly aware of the implication of their vote.
