This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you would the Government to introduce new rules surrounding referendums, but are not sure what rules you would like introduced.

You could start a new petition calling for all referendums to require a super majority to effect change, if that is something you would like to see happen.
