Petition Action

The UK Parliament should vote to endorse the results of the EU referendum.

Petition Details

On the 24th June 2016 the country voted to leave the European Union with a majority of 3.8%. More than 28% of the eligible electorate failed to vote.
Parliament has a mandate to decide whether to endorse the result.

Additional Information

The referendum is not legally binding. MPs have a mandate to review the results in open debate and determine whether or not to endorse the referendum result.

The country is divided. 75% of young people (aged 18-24) voted to remain and 61% of over 65s voted to leave. There was a difference between 'remain' and 'leave' of 1.2 million votes. This result should be re-evaluated in Parliament.
