Rejected petition Make elected officials demanding a 2nd EU referendum go for re-election themself

Why should elected officials get to demand a 2nd EU vote without first going through that process themselves, then we might see how they like it when the very mechanisms that put them in their position is called into question?

More details

We are a democracy. If they want 2nd votes, let's see if their electorate agree with them.
