Call a General Election: Allow us to elect a PM who refuses to invoke article 50

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Mr Cameron & the Conserative Party must call a general election before putting a new PM in place. This will give citizens the opportunity to vote for a new PM who refuses to invoke article 50 & keep us in the EU. Considering the amount of people who regret their leave vote, we need this opportunity.
