Accepting the EU Referendum result
The country decided by a majority vote that Britain should leave the EU.
Please uphold the results of the vote and the wishes of the majority of voters. There should be no second referendum purely on the demands of a petition instigated by Remain voters disatisfied with the result of 23rd June.

Why is this important?
This issue is so important for our country. We are a democracy. It is vital that we accept and respect democratically made decisions, no matter how divisive the underlying issues driving those decisions.
Holding a second referendum purely in response to the losing side being unhappy with the initial outcome would be damaging and divisive for our society. It would make a mockery of the democratic process and create still deeper divisions.
Emotions in the Remain camp were sure to run high in the event of their losing the Referendum vote. 16 million people voted to Remain. The vast majority will feel they should respect the outcome of the democratic process, even if they do not agree with that outcome. However, it is not right or just that a diehard minority of disatsfied Remainers should attempt to force a second referendum purely on their disagreeing with the outcome of the first vote.
