Millions of people have signed a petition in the United Kingdom calling for a second EU referendum.


Britain on Friday voted to break out of the European Union, in a thunderous decision that sent shockwaves across Europe and the rest of the world.The final result showed 17.4 million people voted Leave, while 16.1 million people voted Remain.Since then, a petition has been created by William Oliver Healey, calling for the "Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60 per cent based [on] a turnout of less than 75 per cent, there should be another referendum".Turnout for the EU referendum was 72.2 per cent.
