Call a General Election as the elected Prime Minister has resigned post-Brexit

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Only slightly more than half of the people voting in the EU Referendum have voted for Brexit, and David Cameron has now resigned.

David Cameron is now handing control of negotiations to the people that admitted misleading the voters by using what they claimed were "just inaccurate facts".
If another Prime Minister is appointed, he will not be elected by the population.

Great Britain was misinformed by the Brexit campaign on the NHS and Immigration, along with many other issues.

We, the undersigned, call for a General Election as soon as possible
