Consider a Vote of No Confidence in Her Majesty's Government

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

The Referendum has made it clear that the UK will leave the EU. We need a government capable of mediating between both camps to help us determine the best path forwards together. To prevent half the country becoming alienated we need a general election to pick the right people to deliver this.

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
