Call an immediate General Election

What the petition asks

We the undersigned have no confidence in Boris Johnson as a future Prime Minister and if the Conservative Party elect him to that position his first and only act must be to call an immediate General Election.

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
