crashing

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/brexit-petition-for-second-eu-referendum-so-popular-the-government-sites-crashing-a7099996.html

        All petitions to the site that receive over 100,000 signatures
        must be considered for debate in Parliament by law, as was the
        case with the cannabis legalisation one.

        Update 9:04am: petition.parliament.uk completely inaccessible.

        Update 11:54am: The 100,000 threshhold is passed, with 101,526
        signees.  

        Update 5:12pm: 145,570 and climbing
