Rejected on

On the 23/06/2016 the UK had an EU referendum to give the public the choice of whether they wanted to leave the EU or stay. The public voted to leave with the majority votes of 17,410,742.

To have a second referendum would be an insult to the voters and democracy, the public has spoken.

The votes counted on 24/06/2016 were as follows:

Leave – 17,410,742
Remain – 16,141,241

Leave won by 51.9%
