Uphold the result of the democratic referendum on leaving the EU.

What the petition asks

You should respect the right of people to abstain from the voting process. Just as you do in General Elections. REMAIN voters have raised a petition for a second referendum because they disagree with the democratically reached result. A second referendum would be undemocratic.
The people who wanted to vote, did so and the majority voted to LEAVE. If you enter the voting process you must be prepared to accept the result. If they lost a second referendum would we keep voting until they eventually won? This is a form of Bullying!
REMAIN would not petition for a re-vote if they had won, regardless of the numbers! We were bullied by REMAIN during the campaign, slandered and heckled as racist because we have a different opinion to them. Are our votes not worthy!
