What the petition asks
There are MPs who are petitioning to remain in Europe against the wishes of the majority of their constituents. This suggests that they believe their constituents are not intellectually capable of making decisions. They forget they made the decision to vote for them.
Constituents should be able to recall MPs in breach of the trust they gave when voting for them.
