Apologies if this has already been linked, but just in case it hasn't, there is a petition to Revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU if anyone is interested. Currently on 52k.

Along with more than a million marching on Saturday...

ADarkandStormyKnight · 21/03/2019 15:09

Wouldn't that be amazing?

wittyusermane · 21/03/2019 15:32

I think the numbers need to go an awful lot higher before the petition is taken seriously. Hopefully it will continue to gather momentum.

I've tried twice but am not getting the email to confirm my email address

ADarkandStormyKnight · 21/03/2019 16:17

Have you looked in your spam folder?

Word on Twitter is that its a bit slow.

MrsJBaptiste · 21/03/2019 16:21

Waiting for my confirmation email but I think it will just take time. The website has already crashed once as so many people are trying to access the petition (👍) but I'm sure the emails will come through soon.

StealthPolarBear · 21/03/2019 16:24

Mine went in spam

womanhuman · 21/03/2019 16:31

Exactly darkandstormy, TM will pay no heed but there are others who need to hear it.

countdowntonap · 21/03/2019 16:35

Same - 4 hours later and I’m still waiting for my email.

BelleSausage · 21/03/2019 16:37

Titter gossip says giant lag on emails to complete signing. So it could be well over the 1mil including people waiting for the email.

Some wag on Twitter has worked out 4 days to get to 18 million at this rate.

WitsEnding · 21/03/2019 16:40

I have the email but the link is down.

smartiecake · 21/03/2019 16:42

Its crashed again!

ScreamingValenta · 21/03/2019 16:46

Beeb says it's now over one million.

If only we could get it to 17.4 million!

Come on, Remainers!

KEEP SHARING!

ScreamingValenta · 21/03/2019 16:48

Yep, that's the one!

legolimb · 21/03/2019 16:48

The website is down -'for maintenance'. ?

UterusUterusGhali · 21/03/2019 16:49

Use this [[https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241584/count.json]] to check numbers.

And it'll be in your spam folder. :)

SavageBeauty73 · 21/03/2019 16:50

Petition has been down for ages. Funny that 🙄

countdowntonap · 21/03/2019 16:59

Eurgh, now this error when I click the link. Not being made easy for people to sign...

VeniVidiViciTwice · 21/03/2019 17:01

I've been trying on and off all day. Can't access it.

UterusUterusGhali · 21/03/2019 17:09

It's been mentioned in parliament. A few words. Wonder if the March will make any impact.

Fuck knows if the U.K. Being poorer doesn't make a difference I can't see what else will.

BelleSausage · 21/03/2019 17:18

I don’t know if it will do anything to change TMs mind but we can at least signal to our MPs not to back her. They’ll be watching as will the EU.

Hopefully they will see that the people of the U.K. mostly don’t want this shit show.

countdowntonap · 21/03/2019 17:24

Success! Try again, everyone.
