Declare void the results of the EU Referendum on 23/06.

What the petition asks

Nigel Farage declared 23/06 as 'Independance Day'. I declare it as the day the UK was scammed!

The media/politicians built up this day as the day when the public of the UK will get to decide on the future of this great country, but in reality this was never the case.
On Thusday 23/06, 72.2% of those eligible to vote placed their votes in the EU Referendum. Results were subsequently announced on 24/06 and showed that 52% of those who voted had voted to leave the UK whilst the remaining 48% had voted to remain. If either side achieved over 50% they would be considered as the majority and hence win the referendum. These figures are actually a misrepresentation of the British public. In reality, 52% of our total population have not voted to leave. The actual results are actually as follows:

Vote to leave - 37.54%
Vote to remain - 34.66%
Didn't vote - 27.8%

Only 37.54% of our population actually voted to leave.

I feel the result is fundamentally incorrect. The British public are being lied to, and this is something we will not tolerate.
