Declare the EU Referendum result null and void as voters were wilfully misled

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

It is illegal for an organisation to mislead the public for commercial gain. Some voters cast their ballot based on information that transpired to be false or misleading which benefited the campaigning party. The resulting commercial impact is huge and should not be legally binding on the Nation.
