One million signatures!

Everyone knows that the petition is not legally anything, but I think people want a way to express that when TM is telling us that she’s doing what ‘the people’ want, it’s just not true in the here and now. There is no other way for people to try to express this.

In my family alone, three people that voted to leave are no longer with us, and several who have their own thoughts and opinions are now of age to vote, where they weren’t in 2016

I’m just going to leave this here...

Signed.

I think anything that is so close - eg close to 50/50 is worthy of retesting again,. I thought so of the Scottish independence vote also - you need a good solid majority, however you retain the status quo until you have that majority

maddening · 21/03/2019 16:01

And pinki - "basically" just does not cut it when it is such a complex issue, being so blasé is ridiculous.

Unfinishedkitchen · 21/03/2019 16:23

Andrea Leadsome said she won’t pay notice to the petition until it hits 17.4m.

Well now the target has been set send it to everyone you know!

SovietKitsch · 21/03/2019 16:42

It’s ridiculous to suggest the powers that be should only take note if the petition hits 17.4m. A strong message has surely been sent after over 1m people sign in under 24 hours? A message that they need not to discount the views of the “minority”

Question for remainers- if the shoe was on the other foot, and we’d voted to remain in 2016 would you be saying there should be another vote now as people may not feel the same

If the remain vote was as tainted by fraud as the leave one was in 2016, absolutely.

Question for remainers- if the shoe was on the other foot, and we’d voted to remain in 2016 would you be saying there should be another vote now as people may not feel the same?!

You had your answer three years ago when Farage said that if the vote had gone the other way it would have been unfinished business. So it would be up to you and other Leavers to keep pressing for it, as the right wing of the Tory Party have been doing at least since John Major's time.

The link currently says the page is down for maintenance. How interesting that they should decide to do maintenance on the day this particular poll is up and the numbers have been growing so rapidly.

Goldmandra · 21/03/2019 16:50

That just means it's crashed.

Colourpencils · 21/03/2019 16:54

What's the total? Don't want to look and add to crashing

Colourpencils · 21/03/2019 17:02

Unspiritual it's been doing that all day as so many are trying to sign.

VeniVidiViciTwice · 21/03/2019 17:04

Still can't get on to sign it.

HostessTrolley · 21/03/2019 17:05

It was almost 1.1 million when I last looked

Look on here to check numbers, rather than block the actual petition site. which seems to be down again I wonder why, how convenient for TM
It was at about I million 100,000 last time I looked about an hour ago

LoadOfUtterBoswellocks · 21/03/2019 17:10

Have tried to sign half a dozen times today, but it's always crashed

LarkDescending · 21/03/2019 17:27

It's working now. 1,118,000 ish.

SherlockSays · 21/03/2019 17:31

Been trying to sign all day, can't access it Sad

Jellykat · 21/03/2019 17:33

Managed to access it, but still waiting for the email..

MiniBeasts · 21/03/2019 17:42

Just waiting for my email too, DH will sign when he gets in from work.

HerondaleDucks · 21/03/2019 17:44

Check in your spam or junk folder with a lot of people the email has gone in there. It did with me. I signed this morning when it was at 400 000. Its crazy!

Jellykat · 21/03/2019 17:59

Not in Spam, but have just seen email can take up to 12 hours to arrive.

EL2019 · 21/03/2019 18:09

It’s crashing as so many people have the page open to watch the numbers go up!

If you want to check the numbers without crashing you can use the map. It also breaks down by constituency
