Hold second peoples vote due to leave voters being misled in the brexit campaign
Rejected
10 signatures
What the petition asks
Many leave voters feel they were misled in the leave campaign and would change their vote if they could. The will of the people has changed from the referendum result. If I could aim this petition solely at leave voters then we would only need 1,296,000 signatures to show that this is true.
It is time for parliament to consider the legitimacy of the referendum result due to a deceptive leave campaign. The will of the people was not reflected.
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 about a second referendum on EU membership, 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 to happen. You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
