What the petition asks

The UK has just voted Brexit in the EU referendum.

However, 48% of us do not want to leave the EU and the wealth of culture and opportunities it brings to us. There is still time to iron out our issues with Europe and then vote once more on our final decision.

The EU Referendum is an opinion poll. There is still time to iron out the problems we face in Europe, ie: immigration control.

According to Yvette Cooper prior to the polls opening, 72% of 16-24 year olds wanted the United Kingdom to remain within the European Union. We are the ones who will have to live with this decision and we aren't the ones who wanted it. 48% is too many to ignore.
