Consider a referendum on the terms of EU exit

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

The British people should have the opportunity to make a well informed decision based on actual facts and realities, having observed the relevant international response, conclusions of negotiations, and the revised promises that have been made.
Following the UK's decision to leave the European Union, and since the campaigns from both sides of the argument were laced with mistruths, uncertainties and hypotheticals, it would be in the same spirit of democracy that lead to that referendum, to consider a follow up referendum on the exact terms of Britain exiting the EU.
