Rejected

What the petition asks
It can't be a mandate if unlawful, with the close result, interference by thrird parties in campaigns, overspending on leave eu and Aaron Banks. Ongoing police and legal investigations, must deem the result totally unsafe and void.
On the 21st February 2019, the Court of Appeal sat down to hear the case of [Sue] Wilson and others versus the Prime Minister.
Lord Justices Hickinbottom and Haddon-Cave presided over a tortuous series of opening statements before suddenly being presented with a surprise from James Eadie QC, representing Theresa May.
Without challenge, Eadie CONCEDED that the referendum had met the threshold for ILLEGALITY. Furthermore, had the referendum been binding, which it was not, on both the government and parliament, it would have a statutory, legal mechanism by which it would be ANNULLED.
