The 48% of voters who wished to Remain in the European Union are so mortified by the Leave result that a parliamentary petition calling for a second referendum has been set up.
‘We the undersigned call upon HM Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% based on a turnout less than 75% there should be another referendum,’ the petition, filed this morning, reads.
At the time of writing, the petition is difficult to access, presumably due to a surge of traffic. The count is at 55,000 right now and climbing at roughly a thousand signatures a minute.
All petitions to the site that receive over 100,000 signatures must be considered for debate in Parliament by law, as was the case with the cannabis legalisation one.
Update 9:04am: petition.parliament.uk completely inaccessible.
Update 11:54am: The 100,000 threshhold is passed, with 101,526 signees.

How many referenda would it take before we got to a 60-40 split? We'd be voting forever!!
Load of tosh, the out people could start a petition saying don't listen to those
Remainers because they're just a load of bad losers

Farage himself is all for it - or he was a month ago:

He was all for using the EU money for NHS and then boom , victory , not now ,as he know admits that it was a "mistake" to promise that £350 million a week would be spent on the NHS if the UK backed a Brexit vote. Speaking just an hour after the Leave vote
Tbf the out voters won fair and square
Apart from some of them are now realising what stupid ****s they were and want to change their vote.Originally Posted by tigerbaybluebird
Once past 100k it has to be heard in parliament . Such fun.
if you have any mates out in France tell them to stay away from ATM's withdrawal's as the pounds value has dropped 7% against the Euro
no they didn`t , they cheated, and they`re all rascists, and they`ve ruined "are" country and we should have another vote until we win and..........
Scotland voted to stay in the union on the premise that the uk stays in the EU
Now they want another referendum and I'll think this time they will win
Who cAn blame them
As much as I am unhappy with last night's result - this is just not democracy. You can't set up a petition just because you don't like the result. I'm sure if the result was 52-48 in the other direction, then people who want to leave would have set up the same petition. That's how daft this petition nonsense has become.
The petition should have been raised BEFORE the election - about 3 months ago. People SHOULD have asked their MPs the question. People on both sides would have agreed (considering they both thought they could lose) to have the majority rule changed.
More people want to leave than to remain - I would love us to remain. However, that isn't democratic.
I think the only people who could "complain" would be those who voted to leave but now realise that they may have voted on mis-information on NHS spending.
so Scotland want a united EU but go it alone.
Exactly. I like the petition idea (in general), but now people are creating petitions for all sorts of nonsense. This one is nonsense too - the only legitimate petition now would be to ask for the NHS to get the promised £350m per day. Some people voted purely for that.
There was over a million votes to legalise cannabis
It's still illegal
Just saying
No it doesn't
Some people voted purely for that.[/QUOTE]
i thought they were all thickies who voted on immigration, the race - is t s. Leave won Remain lost we have to go with it now.
Stop chatting shit......i was in Italy 2 weeks ago and got 1.25 euro to the pound, today its 1.23 i don't know how much you withdraw from the ATM but it ain't gonna make much difference unless you draw a couple of hundred grand.

I agree. Some people were duped to vote leave though, but some were duped to vote remain. Negative campaigns bring negative results - politicians still don't get that do they?
What people aren't allowed to express themselves? Bollocks to that.
No, they won against all odds. They defied threats, scare tactics and pro EU propaganda from the BBC. They turned their backs on "advice" the mega rich, who don't live in, or pay taxes to the EU. If Banson, Beckham ETC love the EU so much, let them lobby the governments of Monaco, The Cayman Islands et al, to join the EU.
Zz your city voted out, what u going to do about it??? Sort em out mun
It's like tossing a coin with a BULLY.
Best of 3 heads or tails, you win 2-1, then the BULLY says "Soz, it's the best of 5"
till they win
Will Never happen
