We ask the government to deny a second referendum

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Holding a second EU Referendum undermines the democratic process. The vote to leave had a 4% majority (over a million votes), which should be respected. We can not allow pro-European voters to demand additional referendums until a favourable outcome for them is reached.
