What the petition asks
Since it was overwhelmingly the poor and elderly who voted for Brexit let's eliminate all benefits and pensions to pay for it. This will prevent the financial burden falling on demographics who did not vote for it.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
