What the petition asks
Say no to another EU Vote.
The EU referendum has been decided.Despite the result being close it was nonetheless a majority decision by the UK population to leave the European Union. By those who didn't vote to leave the EU challenging the decision and pushing for a second referendum I believe this is against the principles of democracy and if successful would make a mockery of it, the consequences of which could be dramatic for future votes.
