How hackers hijacked petition demanding second EU referendum and named 42,000 signatories from the Vatican City which only has a population of 840


The full extent of how hackers managed to hijack the petition demanding a second EU referendum can be revealed by MailOnline. Hackers boasted about their exploits in online forums and openly mocked how easy it was to infiltrate the UK Parliament petition website. The petition has attracted more than 3.7million signatures and has led high profile figures to use the petition as proof of the public appetite for a re-run of last week's referendum, which was won by the Brexit campaign by more than 1.2million votes.
