Declare the EU Referendum null and void due to Nigel Farage misinformation

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe that the recent referendum to leave the EU was swayed by a significant margin due to the facts regarding promised £350m funding being diverted to the NHS. Nigel Farage has since admitted this was a mistake. I feel that more than 2% of the electorate would have based their vote on this lie.
