A petition for the government to hold a second referendum on Brexit has proved so popular it temporarily crashed the parliament website.
Within just hours of the historic Leave vote, it had already gained 60,000 signatures and counting.
The petition states:
EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum
We the undersigned call upon HM Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% based a turnout less than 75% there should be another referendum.

Remain voters - YOU LOST, GET OVER IT.

What a horrid f***ing breed,
I say give them as much stick as possible, as they don't really do comedy either. Been stories of Remainers feeling ashamed to be British today after we turned our back on europe  |

If they can get 17,410,743 signatures then they might have a case

Parliament considers all petitions that get more than 100,000 signatures for a debate.

You can just imagine them all making themselves busy passing the message on to
let people know to sign it!!! |

By:
yeah it's already got 177,694 signatures, but I can't see that the Government will take it any further. Cameron would have known about that rule before he quit.

The last 5 general elections have been less than 75%, the last 4 were less than 67%, this referendum built as the biggest of our lifetime and was 72%.
You're not going to get 75% turnout, it's more likely the turnout would be even lower than the 72% and then does the losing side keep asking for another election? if it was feasible, the Prime Minister wouldn't have resigned. The best we can do now, is make the best of the situation, although I highly anticipate the leaving process to be very long and drawn out for political reasons. |

now over 1,500,000.
. some people hate losing. Best bit about it this bit= HM Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% (IF THE LEAVE VOTE)This petition was started after the result . |

I predict a 5-10 year process then we have another referendum to bind Brexits proposals or just stay in a renegotiated e.u.

FFS 75% needed. What planet are these muppets on?
I wonder what % of those who signed this petition actually voted on Thursday. My guess is it will be under 75%. Min turnout rules also give misleading results, as the "keep it as it is " side tells their supporters to stay at home. |

the EU made Ireland have a second referendum when the irish people voted No .

Just found this, here's David Cameron ruling out a second referendum on 22 Feb 2016 when giving a statement to the House of Commons about the Europe referendum.

a bit like England losing to Iceland 1-0 in the Euros and me starting a petition demanding a rematch because the margin of victory was less than 2 goals and the capacity of the stadium was less than 50,000.

They should get an Irish PASSPORT

By:
In think it's only fair on account of Remain voters being clearly 20% cleverer 'cos they're graduates innit.
|
|
By:
This graduate who lives in the south voted leave.
But that doesn't seem to fit in with the rhetoric of 'old, racist, illiterate plebs.' The belly aching and hyperbole are most pleasing reactions. |

When it hits 17 million signatures I promise I will then take the trouble to sign it as well

Donald Trump said he thinks we made the right decision to leave the EU. This confirms that we absolutely did not make the right decision.
