A petition calling for a second EU referendum has topped TWO MILLION signatures - more than doubling the highest signed in parliamentary history.
The popular petition, which was started just one day ago, attracted so many signatures when it first opened that the government's website crashed.
The enormous surge followed the initial 100,000 signatures which were created in a bid to get London Mayor Sadiq Khan to declare the capital as independent.
Protesters are hoping that Khan will call for London to be classed separately from the UK and therefore be able to apply to join the European Union.

Isn’t Obamaland great?
Even when you win, you lose. :)
Did not the Greeks try their Grexit and failed?
If they love the EU so much more than an independent Britain, they still have about two years to move anywhere in the EU, with almost no red tape. Get to stepping, internationalists.
Will do!
It is only slightly more difficult to have those names automatically "sign" a website petition. Even some "capcha" schemes commonly used on websites to exclude robots, can be beaten with a little effort.
That sort of thing typically crashes the target websites unless the feed is carefully metered. Oops!
This so-called petition smells like a Soros-funded "reflexivity" effort.
“Keep voting until you win”
“Protesters are hoping that Khan will call for London to be classed separately from the UK and therefore be able to apply to join the European Union.”
Yeah right.
What are they gonna call it? Londonistan?
Cities without borders... Let them pay bothtaxes hahaha
Yep, heads the liberals win, tails you lose. Frim Wisconsin to London this is how democracy works. And if they were to hold a second referendum and lose they would call for a third and so on and so on. To the totalitarian left democracy is a silly process that is fun to game.
Oh yeah, 2 million in 36 hours.
B. S.
To be honest I thought that the EU freaks would wing it by a narrow margin, ie 2 per cent if that.
I still cant believe that we have freed ourselves ; it will take time to sink in.
Re the mardiness of the Remain crowd, well all I can say is that they cannot swallow the fact that we have given them a bloody nose, but over and above that they are terrified that their taxpayer funded party is coming to an end.
Lastly can I just say I am disgusted with Obama for poking his knebb in our affairs. Hes obviously another of these one world internationalists.Well he and all the others can stick it - THIS IS OUR ENGLAND NOW !
Need to get to bed now - Ive just supped half a bottle of champagne and 4 bottles of Gaymers cider.
Thanks for your post, I’ll speak to you soon.
"WAIT !!! We haven't counted the hanging chads yet !!!"
We’ll see how long it takes to invoke Article 50.
Yes, keep voting until you get the result you want.
Only if they don't win.
If they win, the silence from the right will be deafening.
Gee, ‘the scotsman’ claimed London was very much still British.
“They’ll get the national government to send the army out to the countryside, where they will try to take over the farms and run them as if they were great big empty cities.”
That’s the funniest post I’ve read on FR all year. The Army, who are really farmers, according to you, will milk cows, shuck corn and process jars of pickles, to provide food for the elitist scum. Read comicbooks much, Steely Tom?
HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
I said “try to run them,” Sarge. I didn’t say they’d succeed.
They sure didn’t succeed when they tried it in the USSR. They did succeed in starving to death about 20 million people.
I don’t know what Obama’s knebb is, but I don’t want to think about it.
Congrats, this was the best thing to happen for England. None of the Remain idiots can think two moved ahead.
