Announce a General Election if Article 50 is revoked.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

If Parliament at some point revokes Article 50 then by default a General Election should be held to clear the parliament of those who betrayed the 2016 result. We cannot have the two major parties who in both 2017 manifestos supported the result of the 2016 referendum.
