We demand a post-Brexit General Election

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

After the results of the EU referendum were announced, David Cameron amicably resigned as Prime Minister. Brexit will require a huge change for our country. We the undersigned demand a general election to vote for the government we want to deal with a post-Brexit future in Britain.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Call a snap general election now that the UK have voted to leave the EU
