GUYS. THIS IS IMPORTANT. The petition calling for a second referendum based on the fact that the leave vote lacked a majority of 60% has crashed because of how many people are signing!! The petition only required 100,000 signatures to be put to parliament. THE REFERENDUM IS NOT LEGALLY BINDING. Which means there is a chance we can change this. PLEASE when the site is back up sign the petition. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE OVER 18. LET YOUR VOICES BE HEARD THROUGH THIS BECAUSE THEY WEREN’T LISTENED TO IN THE FIRST PLACE. Parliament has to consider the second referendum for debate. The more signatures, the harder it’ll be for them to ignore. It isn’t much but it is worth a try.

Please sign it! IT IS BACK UP NOW https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/131215

Normally I’d keep anything political / non-gaming off of this blog. But this is an extenuating circumstance. Now that the people who wanted to leave can see the shitstorm of today, and that Scotland, Northern Ireland and Englands own capital, London, are considering breaking free from ‘the UK’ to remain in the EU. Maybe now is a good time to use the double majority rule that should have been there in the first place, and is usually the standard regulation for this type of decision, and have a re-referendum requiring a larger majority of voters to agree.
