Call a 2nd EU Referendum open to those from EU member states resident in the UK

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many UK residents could not vote in the EU referendum despite the fact they have lived/worked in the UK for years, contributed to the economy & paid UK taxes. The vote impacts them. Their voice should count. It is unfair & discriminatory to exclude UK residents from EU member states from voting.
