Hold a second EU referendum

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

It is highly probable that there are many who voted to leave the EU as a protest, who never thought their vote would count as they believed Vote Leave would win, and who are now regretting their decision. Everyone makes mistakes and these people should be given the opportunity to change their minds.
