Closed Annul the 2016 EU referendum result due to the overspend by Leave.EU.

Closed on

UK is a member of the Venice commission. The Venice commission's Code on referenda states (section 3.3 - Funding, Paragraph 24):

"In the event of a failure to abide by the statutory requirements, for instance if the cap on spending is exceeded by a significant margin, the vote must be annulled."

Leave.EU have been found to have overspent spending limits by at least 10%. This is a clear violation of the Venice Commission and as a result, the Referendum result should be annulled and a new vote called.
