What the petition asks
We the undersigned call upon HM Government to ignore the 60%/75% rule calling for a second referendum.
Typical local/general election turnout sits around the 40-45% mark.
The EU referendum drew an unprecedented 72-73% turnout.. The nation has spoken louder than ever before. There is no need for a second referendum!
