London (CNN)British Prime Minister Theresa May has ruled out a second referendum on Britain’s exit from the European Union, saying it would be a “gross betrayal” of democracy.
Writing in the Sunday Telegraph, May said she would not “give in to those who want to re-open the whole question with a second referendum,” adding that “to ask the question all over again would be a gross betrayal of our democracy — and a betrayal of that trust.”
Her comments came after “the People’s Vote” campaign group, which is calling for a second Brexit referendum, recently secured a $1.3 million (£1 million) donation from British fashion mogul Julian Dunkerton.
