Call for a General Election before the end of 2016.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

In light of the UK voting in favor to leave to EU, and the disarray seen in the two major parties, coupled with the fact that both parties have had major reforms in their cabinets, it is undemocratic to allow either of these parties to govern without being voted for by the British public.
