What the petition asks
Less than 52% of voters in the EU Referendum voted to leave, a vote many are now regretting. This % figure is not a mandate for change, especially in light of the lies told.
A referendum is only an opinion poll, it does not mean you need to follow this very marginal result. Discuss and vote as MPs

Our MPs need to now vote on whether on not to actually leave the EU.
This petition is asking for another parliamentary discussion and vote on whether to invoke Article 50 or not.
They don't have to take the results of the referendum. Less than 52% of 72% of the population want to leave - I make that only 37% of the total voting population!
