So the woman who allegedly threatened Theresa May is complaining she has received death threats. You couldn't make it up. https://order-order.com/2019/03/22/revoke-article-50-petition-creator-threatened-may-discussed-buy-legal-guns-take-commons/
In addition to all the fake signatures on this petition, we now learn that the originator has made threats against Theresa May's life, and even wrote about procuring a firearm. Aren't these Remoaners a lovely bunch?

An online petition does not overrule the referendum result. Is that so hard to understand?
Internet petitions are worthless, the only vote that matters is the one done at the ballot box. Everybody from around the world can sign the current petition as many times as they like, it means absolutely nothing.
Your explanation doesn't wash with me, this petition is being hjacked wholesale. https://order-order.com/2019/03/21/foreign-actors-hijack-article-50-petition-fake-signatures/
