The British People do not want a second EU referendum.

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

The result of the EU referendum on the 23rd of June 2016 was democratic and valid. Motions to have a second EU referendum are unjustified and should be rejected.
We the undersigned, call upon the British government to recognise that the turnout percentage, and the cross section of British people and wide ranging constituencies that voted in favour of leaving the EU makes it a binding and valid result. A petition for, or call to motion a second EU referendum is unjustified, and should not be accepted, on the basis of the democratic result on Thursday 23rd of June 2016.
