70% Of British Parliament Petition Signatures for 2nd EU Referendum Don’t Live In The U.K.

The Petitions Committee were already onto this judging by the time stamp.

In america you need an ID for almost everything, and it's not racist. Ask for one to vote and it racist.

With that liberal logic: Accusing people of petition fraud is racist

This is establishment saying, "We don't like the way you voted".

I disagree , I think it goes deeper than that , it highlights a problem we have in society.

This is an embarrassment to the democratic process

I agree but at the moment it's little more than a news story , now it seems the petition has been compromised it will fizzle away to where it belongs.

Like it, hate it, the people voted.

Indeed.
Nervous but exited.

This guy has some good points.



Laughed at the comments


Oh god it was infowars but he did make some good points

The big issue with this data is that there were no exit polls allowed and the poll cards are anonymous, so this data is a random guestimation at best along with the data suggesting that less than age 50 predominantly voted to remain. This data is likely comprised of disgruntled teens taking their fight to the internet post result. I voted leave (I'm 26) and my train of thought was never "best go put my vote on a post referendum exit poll".

None of this data is fact and it is being abused by every media outlet and individual against the final vote as a weapon. Facebook, YouTube and Twitter is abundant with "The older generations screwed us". The truth is it's likely that ~50% (or much nearer than the polls suggest atleast) in most of these age groups voted leave, but fear of reprisal and backlash isn't allowing us to speak out as a campaign of hate is against us.

Ages 50+ only accounts for ~7 million leave votes assuming their data is correct.

If I remember there are 1.2 million Brits living in other EU countrys, add to that the children, and that could be over 3mil.

Then they should of sent a postal vote.

There fault there problem.

Interesting reading
EU Petition fraud

What will they think of next? This is getting more and more childish by the hour

The results of the "Leave" vote are the BEGINNING of the negotiations, not the end of anything.

Even if this petition does not result in a 2nd Referendum (I doubt it will), the required Article 50 will not even be submitted until there is a new PM which would be October at the EARLIEST.

The negotiating and bureaucracy will drag the exit out for a several months after that which will bring the timing up against German and French national elections.

Dont hold your breath for an early or speedy exit. And dont be surprised if it doesn't happen at all but instead leads to a renegotiated deal for the UK within a modified EU.

So they should just accept the majority ruled?

Thought you stood for people standing up for when they felt misrepresented.

Never said they shouldn't express themselves.

But to revote after a vote because the vote didn't go their way, is ####ing stupid.

I wouldn't be surprised that if the UK with a second partition to be forced to give up the pound Stirling when choosing to remain within the EU ?

That voluntary list of EU quislings might come in handy later.

Never forget.

Never forgive treason.

Could it be a massive global effort by TPTB to over-ride the U.K. vote?

Doubtful. However, there are a lot of UK expats in Europe, not to mention Europeans who don't want the UK to leave. Whichever way you cut it, the EU needs the UK more than the UK needs the EU.
