Reverse the decision to make a commemorative Brexit coin.
It has been announced that a commemorative 50p coin will be issued to mark the UK's departure from the European Union (EU) next year. Based on the divisive nature of Brexit, Parliament should consider reversing the decision to reflect the 60%+ of the population who did not vote to leave the EU.
Leave vote was 51.89% and the turnout was 72.21%, based on these figures, 62.5% of the population did not vote to leave the EU.
