I don't have source for this other than this tweet:

Chris Davies MEP

@ChrisDaviesLD
European Parliament has just voted 544-126 in support of UK being given an article 50 extension should the request be made. #StopBrexit

2,568
11:11 - 18 Sep 2019

but assume it's correct. Interesting because I did wonder whether they would agree to such a short extension..

Urm My point was- what made the 37.5% suddenly decide that they should vote to leave when in the previous year only 5% of the population was unhappy? The date of the referendum was announced on 20 February so that left about 4 months for people to receive the document, read and research before voting.

Are you seriously suggesting that's what the population did? Somehow I doubt it.
