This comparing of numbers all the time is growing tiresome - nothing the Remainer protesters puts up will ever beat the actual vote, the vote that democratically decided we are leaving the EU.

This is nonsense - there has been no change and more crucially, you have no evidence to back this up with, where as two votes have taken place over 2 years. The EU Referendum and the Snap Election that took place a year after.
Both sets of Data from these votes, went for Brexit. 80% of the Electorate in the Snap Election went for parties who had a manifesto on leaving the EU. One other main party, the Liberal Democrats, went on a platform of wanting another referendum - they gained little seats. If the UK seriously wanted another Referendum, they would have voted Liberal Democrats, en masse, it never happened because the UK does not want a second vote. |
You do realise this is a petition to have a final say on what deal we have for Brexit. Not a rescind Brexit vote.
Surely it is better to have a majority agreement on such a permanent change, than a minority one? At least then the 49 million who did not vote positively for Brexit get a say, even if that does not please the dictators.
Otherwise we would have left the EU soon after triggering A50, rather than the dithering and movable red lines we have had.
