This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition was it reasonable for remain to incite hatred of the elderly to gain advantage
Rejected on
I have confirmation from the electoral commission that the only data collected at the referendum in 2016 was total votes for leave/remain and if a person voted , also they did not carry out any research as to the reason anyone voted leave/ remain .So no/age education data
I believe people should have a rite to vote as they please without fear of the consequences . As we prosecute people for races related hate crime I believe now is the time to give the elderly the same lever protection of protection we give to others in the UK
