EU referendum result is not legally binding

[doodles]

Currently at 2.4 million signatures I wonder where it will end?

It would be great if 5 million people would sign the petition. That level of support could provide Parliament with sufficient cover to act (agree a new referendum, choose to not give effect to the 23rd June result and call a general election instead, etc).

This is how daft some people who voted were. It beggars belief.

Jane if this vote has caused potential residence difficulties many EU nationals who have been here for a number of years have started applying for dual nationality.This was something I heard on Radio 4.

Quasi,

It is not as simple as it appears. Unfortunately, there are some arcane rules! For example, I have passed my citizenship test several years ago, but I was stuck on the next step though I had lived for 6 years in the UK!

Not sure I would get a British passport if I apply now as I have made the choice to have the time to raise my children to the best of my ability rather than work and have a career. My intention is of course to work ( I sat my English GCSE this year for that as well as the FS level 2 maths so I am not staying idle ), but it takes time to gather all the qualifications due to all the regulations, some of them being ridiculous.

But my position concerning the referendum is not based on my personal cicumstances. I am just really pro-Europe and believe in the importance of all countries being united together and for the different people to be able to travel and discover and appreciate each other's culture!

“Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.”

It is what it is.

Democracy gets its wrong sometimes-The referendum was as fair as any other national vote.

The intelligentia can be wrong as well as the supposedly dimwits,although I think the British working class people were hoodwinked by the Brexit brigade-Corbyn had 3 months to make his case-completely spineless and unconvincing.

Now we need to unite and move forward and let the outers walk the walk they have evidently already talked the talk already and won-fair and square.

The ball is now in their court-good luck to them!!

Could we even reach 10 millions?
The more signatures, the better!
As one was saying to another person who wanted to commit suicide due to the difficulties this person was facing in life: 'as long as you breathe, you can fight'
So fight by peaceful means we can do...

Just wondering how many 'leavers' now say they regret their choice - would that be more than the 1.3 million people that helped Brexit win?

The Ukip leader said he had never made such a pledge
