A petition to nullify the UKs EU referendum and hold another appear to be riddled with fraudulent data. Raw data examined reveals that many of the participants come from outside the UK, or use IP addresses outside the UK.

The sight of educated men and women trying to overturn a national referendum with an online petition is pathetic beyond belief, wrote Chris Snowdon of the Institute for Economic Affairs. Many of the arguments made by the Remain camp were fundamentally anti-democratic; they prefer to have an elite in charge with whom they agree [rather] than have a demos in charge with whom they do not. Since losing the referendum, their contempt for democracy and the demos has become terrifyingly explicit. Every attempt is being made to find a way of overruling the will of the people.

In particular, I'm having a sense of deja vu here. The Remain elitists sound exactly like the Republican leadership and caucus/assembly supporters we just had to deal with in Colorado.
Pathetic beyond belief
Sounds JUST like the Republican and Demonratic leadership anywhere in this country.
Ignore the people. The people don’t know what they are doing. The elites know best.
Power and money is all they care about. To hell with the rest of us.
We are so overwhelmed with so much evil in this world that it is very difficult to overcome those that are in power. It would not shock me if they would thrust a redo vote on the people or prolong the EUexit in hope the people will forget and move on!
Good. I commend those MPs who, even if they voted REMAIN, who will respect the vote.
Typical of the left. Don’t like the results, throw them away, try again until you like the results.
I'm glad it didn't take long to figure this one out.
Chill, people. It’s just 4-Chan acting like the trolls they are.
