What the petition asks

On 23/06/2016, the voting majority cast their vote to exit the European Union.
In the sense of true democracy, those votes should be respected and the democratic process should not be undermined by those seeking to try and over-rule it!
This petition is to uphold common sense and the democratic right of those who have chosen to vote for Britain to leave the EU
