Invalidate the EU referendum - voters were influenced by miss-represented facts.
Rejected

What the petition asks
Voters were unduly influenced by pro exit politicians grossly miss-representing facts regarding the economy, the migrant situation, the money paid by Britain to the EU and the extent to which the EU influences British law. The referendum should be re-held after an extended and more accurate debate.
Voters have just taken the most important decision of their lives based on misrepresented facts and half truths. the British public deserves a more honest, open and accurate debate before making such a decision
