Re: Million sign petition to stop Trumps visit

I think he should come and visit so he can see how an integrated society does work, even with well ordered protests (if we can keep the idiots away) to express disagreement. Need carrot and stick approach to teach sometimes.

Even the petition itself is a good thing to allow disapproval to be expressed but in our democracy petitions are just that and do not need to be followed. I would disagree with a petition to overturn a public vote though, so a large group of people "vote again" the same way they voted before - so what? If it was simply a parliamentary vote on leaving then yes, petition away but not on a referendum.
