Put the decision to leave the EU to a parliamentary vote

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

It has now become clear that many of those who voted to leave the EU were mislead or have since changed their minds. It is understood that the result is not legally binding, and we the undersigned believe that the possibility of the referendum being overruled should be debated in parliament.
