Rejected petition A second referendum should be held to determine whether the UK leaves the EU.

It appears to be relatively clear and agreed that the persuasive arguments used to support the Brexit stance were vague suppositions at the best and barefaced lies at the worst. We are now also in a very different political climate following the election of Donald Trump. It should now be time for the Citizens of the UK to participate in their own 'reality check' before we push this Country into an irreversible situation.
