Sorry, 17.4 Million beats 6 Million and if I was a Remainer, I would be very very worried that only 6 Million people have signed a well publicised petition to revoking Article 50 and Remaining in the EU. Where are all the 16 Million people who voted Remain, where is their signature, why have they not added theirs to it?

Not to mention that the figure is inflated due to abuse, i.e has been signed multiple times by the same persons. That is why we don't measure democracy via Online Petitions that can be easily manipulated and open to abuse.
