Prevent a 2nd Referendum on Britain's membership of the EU
On 23 June, Britain voted to leave the EU, with a majority of 51.9%. Despite the outcome, there is currently a petition going around to hold a 2nd referendum, turning a blind eye to the democratic verdict given on Thursday. David Cameron said himself that "this is a referendum and not a neverendum."
Another referendum should not be held. This was a once in a lifetime decision made by the British people, and such a decision should not be ignored. Some people are evidently upset with the result, and that is understandable, but you do not ask for another referendum just because the result did not go your way. After the divide, chaos and uncertainty caused over the past four months, we do not need a repeat of that process. It would be devastating and unwise.
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.
