I fund it interesting (and strange) that numbers in NI are so low.

I think the numbers voting in a constituency are highly influenced by the presence an active network of remain campaigners. It's not surprise that the highest number of signers is in France (very active network of British remainers coordinated by RIFT) and in Bristol (where the remain network is large and active enough to rent an entire train).

This suggests that there is some low hanging fruit to be plucked by people who live in remain constituencies where the numbers voting are not yet very high - a local leafleting campaign could be very effective for eg.

I still haven't received my confirmation email.

rate was 1098 per minute now gone up to over 300 again

109 der,

Relatively few (non-Irish) EU citizens live in Northern Ireland?

Therefore - fewer EU citizens are signing the petition from Northern Ireland?

I keep having a look at the 'Leave, no deal' petition as well. Revoke has almost exactly 10x as many signatures.

I still haven't received my confirmation email.

I imagine that a lot of the increase now is people finally getting their confirmation links. I assume you've checked your spam folder?

Anyone in Boston and Skegness? Barely any signatures there.

WTF is that supposed to mean Clavinova?

Relatively few (non-Irish) EU citizens live in Northern Ireland?

I'd have thought more likely a social media networks effect.

I assume you meant 'non U.K. citizens' - the vast majority of signers in all constituencies will be EU citizens who want to stay EU citizens.

The rate is a bit slow this morning.

Even if ALL EU residents had signed the petition, there aren't 5.5 million of them, so you'd still have at least 2m signatures from natives. How ridiculous to dismiss the petition on that basis. In the same way, why don't we dismiss the ref result because Commonwealth citizens were allowed to vote? They may have had a vested interest in stopping FOM, right?
It would be just as ridiculous.

they have updated the chart to give percentage of voters and percentage of population.

That figure seems reasonable to me.

There is no evidence that EU citizens have signed the petition at a rate different from U.K. citizens. Unless you have some evidence?

There are reasons to think that the signing rate might be lower among EU citizens resident in the U.K. than among Britons (because some don't speak English, some won't follow UK politics, may not realise that you can sign without being British) - but I wouldn't make any specific claim about that because we don't have any evidence for it.

There is a rash of posters gaslighting on petition and march threads today, because they know the numbers are huge, they know that the leave cause cannot turn out anything like the same support for its petitions and marched, and they're in a bit of a flap about it.

Speak to your MP. I enjoyed recording mine.

I had to look up gaslighting;

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, making them question their own memory, perception, and sanity.

Are you doubting yourself Mistigri?

There is no evidence that EU citizens have signed the petition at a rate different from U.K. citizens. Unless you have some evidence?

I'll answer your question when you answer mine, clav
