Make it law that only one referendum can be held on an issue in a 5 year period

Petition Details

Following the result of the EU referendum which took months of campaigning and cost millions of taxpayer's pounds, some people who voted remain are attempting to have a 2nd referendum called because they weren't happy with the majority vote. A referendum should be a one time vote on an issue.

Additional Information

A 2nd EU referendum would cost millions of pounds more of tax payers money and be inflicted on a public who generally don't have the appetite for a 2nd referendum. This would be the case in future referendums on other issues too as a precedent would be set now if a 2nd referendum was called.
