I'm not trying to downplay the significance of the petition or its size, but I don't believe math works that way.
Why there hasn’t been a counter pro-brexit petition yet I have no idea. Those numbers would be higher purely on the zealotry.
2) Why would there need to be a pro-brexit petition if brexit won the vote? That is unless cancelling brexit suddenly becomes the way that decision-makers want to go for (and note that there are pro hard brexit petitions)
Disclaimer: I do not reside in the UK, and I no longer click on every article in the ever-flowing torrent of brexit-related news, so my knowledge of the ongoings may be outdated
If the issue has already been debated recently, the Petitions Committee may decide not to put a petition forward –– and one might argue that this petition has already been debated in parliament.
This particular [petition] case is already active in the UK court, which means the petition does not meet the required standard to be considered.
