Call a snap election for October

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The British public feel betrayed by politicians we voted in during the 2017 election. 17.4 million voters have been overturned by some 330 people, how is that democracy? We support Boris Johnson’s in calling an election as it’s needed to break the deadlock and provide clarity in our Brexit strategy
