EU referendum and or confirmatory votes should only be undertaken by UK Citzens

Petition Details

When the UK joined the European Economic Community it was voted upon by UK Citizens - any future EU referendum and or confirmatory vote should only be voted upon by UK Citizens - this maintains fairness to UK citizens thus avoiding vested interests by non UK Citizens who have Europen connections

Additional Information

Brexit conflicts have been exacerbated by voters who have European vested interests - this is unfair to the ordinary UK Citizen - Brexit is such an important issue we must ensure it is UK Citizens who ultimately decide upon the future way forward - Ordinary UK Citizens do not have the luxury of having a foot in both the UK and European camps.
