Petition · past parliament

A 2nd vote on Brexit should be given to the UK people.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

There have been fundamental changes in "the facts" as presented to the people and the attitudes that many people have towards the EU since the vote. My computer asks "are you sure" before making simple changes I think it is reasonable to ask the people "are you sure" before we carry on with this.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Call for a second EU referendum as the first did not have a clear mandate.
