What the petition asks

The EU referendum as been a fair and political campaign. Both sides delivered they reason to stay and leave, the British public listened and made the current fair and democratic decsicion to leave the Europeon Union. To hold a second referendum would see the democracy and voice taken away.
The second referendum would be seen as taking away the democratic voice of the people of Great Britain. If this was allowed would that mean every time we were unhappy with a democratic vote, we could vote again.
