Disallow a second EU referendum
A second EU referendum should not be allowed as the referendum was carried out fairly, and the result was very clear.
A petition for a second EU referendum has been created and has over 1.5 million signatures. This petition states that if there is a turnout of less than 75%, then either side must gain 60% of the vote to win. A second referendum should not be allowed on this basis, as it is clear that neither side is realistically capable of gaining a 60% majority vote. There would be a never ending string of referendums if these were the conditions for victory.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
