The petition, which had 2,374,547 signatures shortly before 9:30 p.m. U.K. time, proposed a rule that stating if that if the "remain" or "leave" camps won less than 60 percent of the vote with less than a 75 percent turnout "there should be another referendum."
Technically, the referendum result is not legally binding because of Britain's sovereign Parliament. David Lammy MP, a member of the left-wing Labour party, called Saturday for a legislative vote on whether to remain in the EU.

What is article 50 and why is it so central to the Brexit debate?

politicians there don't want the applecart overturned....sound familiar ???
Yeah Super Delegates in our Two party system and Our Fore fathers set up a Republic so that the simple majority could not rule. I think they thought the average Joe was not smart enough to control events by a simple majority.
