Rejected petition Acknowledge the democratic flaws of the EU referendum and not action the result

This petition proposes that democracy is not served through lies and misinformation. And that to act on the result of a democratically unjust referendum would strip individuals of their European citizenship against their will, and their human right to freely participate in their European community.

More details

In light of democratic injustices this petition proposes that withdrawal of European citizenship against one`s will is a violation of human rights, siting Article 27 right to freely participate in the cultural life of the community, Article 13 right to liberty of movement within the territory of a state. Injustices are: misinformation presented to voters; furthermore withholding 16 and 17 year old`s right to vote on that which cannot realistically take effect until they are of legal voting age.
