What the petition asks
The opposition Parties may instigate a vote of no confidence in the Government so they can put in place an unelected Government that is not representative of the majority of the electorate. There MUST be a General Election if there is a no confidence vote. The electorate MUST be allowed to decide
The electorate MUST be allowed to vote in a General Election before a non elected Government is allowed to put in place measures which go against promises made in the manifestos of the General Election of 2017. To not do so, would be the biggest breach of democracy this country has ever seen
