The people should vote on the terms and conditions of Brexit.

What the petition asks

Direct Democracy was used to decide whether to leave the EU. Direct Democracy should be used to determine whether the outcome of the negotiations are also acceptable to the populace.

There was a 2% margin between the Yes and No camp. There is now an 8% margin for the argument to remain in the EU
On the run up to the initial referendum, David Cameron advocated the use of direct democracy to engage the public in a decision on whether they wished to say in Europe or not.

It has become clear since, that a lot of the promises made have turned out to be false.

As the process started with Direct Democracy, it seems logical that the only way forward is for the populace to vote on the outcome of the negotiations as well.
