Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Disregard Petitions that would change EU Referendum rules.

We, the undersigned, request that any Petitions that demand Change to EU Referendum Rules or may trigger a Second EU Referendum are either not debated in Parliament or are removed from the Parliament Petitions website.

More details

Requesting the implementation of rules after the EU Referendum has taken place is unreasonable and unfair. Debating this issue in Parliament would be a waste of time and would only cause more divisions.

A Second EU Referendum would be a waste of resources and would cause more instability. Democracy has already been served.

A turnout greater than 75% is higher than the average turnout for a General Election. Implementing additional rules on referendums that do not have high turnouts is absurd.
