Every single time there are two or more politicians being interviewed on Brexit, it ALWAYS ends up with everybody talking over everybody else and nobody interested in listening to any view other than their own. No wonder people have a low threshold for engaging in any meaningful way with this BS.
Just. Make. It. STOP.

That petition will smash 800,000 shortly, and looks well on course to do way over 1 million. Do we know what the record is for this type of online Gov petition? At what point does it get taken seriously?

You already know the answer to the second question.

The Order-Order website is posting that the petition has been influenced by "foreign bodies".

Hardly, you can download this data freely and I've just loaded into Excel.

97% of the signatures originate the UK, which is approx 756,000.

France are showing their support though with 7k :)

30million - Would that be enough?

What has happened in the last 3 years to make you think this Government, the official opposition and the rest of our elected officials will listen to the view of 30,000,000 people more so than the wishes of a couple of dozen gammons marching some of the way from Sunderland to London?

Bound to be thousands of ex-pats whose lives will be affected by Brexit so I'd fully expect a small percentage of votes from abroad. We are not expecting a block vote from Russia asking for Article 50 to be revoked though are we ?
