What the petition asks
People voted to leave the EU on the basis of promises already broken, such as "£350m for the NHS" & "reduction of immigration to the UK." Promises were made by campaign leaders knowing they were not the whole truth, but would strongly influence British voters unable to research facts themselves.
The Leave campaign perpetuated a blisteringly arrogant false advertising campaign, with no plan in place to carry out their promises. Our country is being held to ransom as a result. We cannot let this stand, and call for the result to be declared null and void, based as it was on lies and propaganda.
