Rejected petition Allow British citizens living in Continental Europe a vote in a new Referendum

That’s the combined populations of Exeter, Oxford, Norwich, Watford and Wigan. (The Independent Wednesday 8 August 2018: https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/brexit-second-referendum-final-say-denied-vote-british-citizen-a8482411.html).
