What the petition asks
While it's true that a majority of the UK public voted to leave the EU, the margin was narrow and the decision will have a long-lasting impact on our young people who according to the YouGov EU Referendum On The Day Poll (23/06/16) voted 3:1 to remain (18-25 yrs). How is it fair to do this to them?
