True to form with Leftists the globe over, first they cheated at the Brexit vote and, now, not having gotten their way, simply want to dismiss the vote altogether.
Perfect.
Why vote? Why waste your time, when the Leftist Elitist Ruling Class will do as it pleases with little pushback from media?
First, the cheating, from BreitbartUK:
3M+ ‘Remain’ Petition Uses ‘Script’ To ‘Fake’ Signatures: 25,000 From North Korea, 2,800 From Uninhabitable Antarctic
by Raheem Kassam
Questions are being raised as to the true number of UK citizens signing a petition to urge another European Union membership referendum as evidence emerged that activists are encouraging foreign signatories. Some critics claim that a “bot” or “script” is being used to automatically generate names and signatories.
As of early Sunday afternoon, over 3.1 million signatures had been registered on the petition named: “EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum” which calls for the “Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% based a turnout less than 75% there should be another referendum.”
But an analysis of the data on the petition shows that at least 6 per cent of the signatories, or nearly 200,000 are from foreign countries. While foreign-based UK nationals are allowed to sign UK petitions, some believe that many of these are fraudulent given that Remain activists are handing out post codes online in order to elicit more signatures from abroad.
When abject cheating happened to fail, an outright overturning of the people’s vote is next up from the Leftist Playbook. FoxNews.com writes:
Brexit remorse? UK lawmaker calls for Parliament to ignore EU referendum
The aftershocks of Thursday’s referendum on British membership in the European Union continued to reverberate Saturday with one lawmaker saying Parliament should overturn the result.
Voters in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Gibraltar opted to leave the 28-nation bloc by the relatively narrow margin of 1.2 million votes out of more than 33 million cast. The result revealed deep regional and generational divides in the United Kingdom, with young voters, London and Scotland overwhelmingly voting “Remain.” By contrast, older voters, the rest of England and Wales voted “Leave” by similary large margins.
It initially appeared that many voters quickly developed buyer’s remorse after the vote, with more than 2 million people apparently signing an online petition calling for a second referendum to be held. But it was revealed Sunday that many of those signatures were faked, with hackers from Anonymous and the online community 4 Chan likely responsible, Heat Street reported.
See the first article, above.
What to do, then? Ignore it all. Tear it down. “Too many ignorant people in the UK. We need to push their votes aside and do what we, the parliament, know is best for those brain-dead Britons who voted for Brexit.”
Once again, Leftists insisting they know better than anyone else what is better for you, including you.
If they cheat and can’t win, then wish to cancel the results in any event, I have but one question:
Why make a pretense, Leftists? Why should the populace be allowed to vote at all?
As far as you’re concerned, you’d simply prefer to rule by diktat.
