We need 2nd EU Referendum due to false information used to deceive people

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

People were told a number of lies in the run up to the EU Referendum. We were told £350 million pounds a week would be spent on the NHS. Within hours of vote the lie was retracted. It deceived people into voting and therefore with the knowledge we now have we should be given a 2nd referendum.
