What the petition asks
Because I have livedin Spain for more than 15 years, I have not been able to vote in the recent referendum.
Having demonstrated living in the spirit of being a member of the European Union and now unable to have a say in its future is tantamount to being excluded as one of its citizens.

Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
The Eu referendum has already taken place. It is therefore not clear what action you would like the Government or Parliament to take.
