Not revoke Article 50 under any circumstances

What the petition asks
52% of British Citizens voted for Brexit, therefore those who sign this petition should be of the opinion that democracy should be upheld no matter the result of the “Revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU” petition. The country was consulted, and the result of the referendum should be respected.
The worryingly popular petition which aims to prevent Brexit is garnering millions of signatures, those of the 48% of people who voted not to leave the EU when the 2016 Brexit referendum was held. On that day, a majority of British citizens decided that we should leave the EU. This decision has not been respected by many in Parliament, and those who believe that we should remain in the EU are taking the opportunity to attempt to circumvent the will of the majority and if democracy itself.
Why it was rejected
There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.
We have received a large number of petitions in support of leaving the EU, which are very similar to petitions that are already open. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one asking for the same thing. You are more likely to get action if you sign and share a single petition.
