77,000 fraudulent signatures have been removed, which have been known to have been added by hackers, and they're saying they will remove any others that are fraudulent. The number stands at 3.3 million at the moment.

I hardly did anything remotely resembling hacking, though. All you have to do is pick an area code from UK and 'say' you're from UK. I didn't do anything special.

 

Unless they check IP addresses of everyone on the list; in which case, I'll accept that.

Hackers admitted adding thousands of counterfeit names which have since been removed.

The petitions site say they are continuing to monitor and remove signatures that are not coming from the UK.
