STOP any second EU Referendum

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

We live in a democratic United Kingdom. We were offered the opportunity to vote to remain or leave the EU. 72% took up their right to vote. Over 17 million people voted out. Less than 17 million people voted in. A second vote undermines this whole process.
Our right to vote is one of the few things that we, a member of the UK can do to make a difference to our Country. A second referendum would prove that our votes don't matter. Let's stop this now.
