People to have power to force a general election if there is no confidence

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

The people must have the power to force elections if the government in charge fails to enact the will of the people which they were voted on. This will stop a government or parliament to go against the democratic will of the voters and stop laws being passed that will endanger the population.
