What the petition asks
The Leave campaign as dropped its appeal against the Electoral Commissions fine for illegal funding. It has in essence admitted that it cheated in the run up to the 2016 referendum. Because of this we must revoke Article 50 as the referendum results have been invalidated by this admittance.
