Vote of no confidence in the EU referendum process and result.
Key information presented by campaign groups in the lead up to the EU referendum was incorrect, misleading & misrepresentative. This created public confusion & impoverished political debate. The public vote could only be based on misrepresented information, which is not part of a healthy democracy.

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:
We can't accept this petition because it asks for something that neither the House of Commons nor the Government can do. The expression "vote of no confidence" is used when talking about a vote in the House of Commons which tests whether or not the Government of the day has the confidence of a majority of MPs in the House of Commons. That's why we allow petitions asking for a vote of no confidence in the Government or in individual Ministers.
The concept of the House having “confidence” in someone does not apply to the referendum result or process.
