Call a general election

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

Based on parliaments handling of brexit and the results of the MEP elections a vote of no confidence should be raised in Parliament as a whole not just the government and a general election called immediately
Parliament as it stands has lost the confidence of the country with the two main political parties losing votes and being unable to decide what to do. The European elections showed that there is faith in one party clearly and they should be given a chance to form a government
