Poll: Would you like to see a second referendum on Brexit in the UK?

More than 3.5 million people have signed a petition to have a rerun of the vote.

A PETITION TO hold a second EU referendum has garnered more than 3.5 million signatures in the wake of Friday morning’s Brexit decision.

The UK voted by 52% to 48% to leave the union, but most voters in Scotland and Northern Ireland opted to remain. David Cameron, who announced his resignation on Friday, said ahead of last week’s vote that there would be no rerun.

During the campaign, UKIP leader Nigel Farage said that a narrow win for the Remain side could lead to unstoppable demand for a second vote.

This morning we’re asking: Would you like to see a rerun of the Brexit referendum?

    According to Republicans, the gays caused these storms. Therefore, it’ll be hard to persuade Reps to ‘believe’ in global warming, which, by the way, was kind enough to give us the wet, grey ‘summer’ we just had.

    Who needs scientists, studies and facts, when we have the bible and genesis.

    I’m sure Obama and Christie will be all over this new storm.
