Petition · past parliament

We the undersigned call upon David Cameron to dissolve parliament

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

David Cameron should call a General Election to let the electorate decide whether the UK should leave or remain in the EU, where at least one party campaigns to leave and at least one party campaigns to remains. A win for the Remain campaign would provide a mandate for a second EU referendum.

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
