Call for a general election

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

As the conservative government is now electing a new leader, whom automatically becomes Prime minister, that we as a nation did not vote for, I call for a general election.
The conservative party have had 3 years under May and is now, like Cameron, passing the baton on.The Prime minister should be elected by all the people.
