There was a post some time ago about non democratic Australia forcing all the eligible voters to vote, lived there done that, it does work actually, if the uk had had that system things may have gone differently, however we don't and only those who bothered to vote had their say, you can't come back later and say, I wish I had voted.

This and too many whining kids saying "the old people stitched us up". You're own age group stitched you up, only 36% could be bothered to vote.

 

 

Totally agree. Too self absorbed and more interested in what's going on in Fcukbook. Until they can vote via their cnutPhone's, they'll mostly be a waste of space come voting.

Any petition running to more than 100,00 has to be put to Parliament for consideration, this petition only started after the referendum and is already over 1,010, 000 and going up incredibly fast.  With respect, it is not meaningless, if Parliament says yes to another Referendum in the debate which it now has to have, and enough vote to stay then that will stand, that is the democratic process.

 

40.000 votes coming from the vatican. (which has 1000 inhabitants) 24.000 votes from north korea :huh: Open the json with notepad to see where all the votes are coming from: https://petition.par...ons/131215.json

 

It's basically a scriptkiddy frenzy at the moment. https://twitter.com/...860077898936320

So the reason for the petition is that  a figure of 60% in favour of leave wasnt reached, not sure why he picks this particular figure. Ok so the Scottish independence referendum result was 55% ish in favour of staying in with the rest of us. Therefore, by the petition starters own reasoning, the Scots should have a second referendum too, in chronolgical order of course.

So the Scots vote for independence which it seems they would do now. After that we have the second EU referendum excluding Scotland because they are now seperate and can make their own arrangements. 

Exclude Scotland from the voting map below and even with some voters changing thier minds because they were "lied" to it would be a walk over for leave.

You cant just cherry pick the referendum you want re-run because it suits your argument.

The reason for the petition is that a LEAVE voter set it up BEFORE the vote 'just in case we voted to stay in'. Now he's pissed because it's been completely hijacked by remain voters. The definition of irony. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The government called the referendum. Therefore they should have a plan for either remaining or leaving.

The leave campaign had their ideas of what should happen in the event of voting to leave but they are not in a position of power to implement any of that and it could not be defined in detail anyway as we will now be going into a negotiation period.

You're having a laugh right? You are excusing the leave campaign of having no plan? The government knows this is a disaster and campaigned against it. They are nanaging the fallout with absence at the moment. The leave campaign own this shambles. Its their doing and they are shuffling it off to people who campaigned to stop it!!!
