Call a Covid-19 General Election

Closed 4,552 signatures

What the petition asks

Following the coronavirus pandemic, the UK population should be given a choice via a general election to decide how the recession/austerity is administrated/delivered.
I am growing more concerned day by day about the period of recession/austerity that will follow the coronavirus pandemic on the UK population. I believe the UK public should be given the choice of how the ensuing recession is administrated; the political landscape has changed following the pandemic & the UK population should be given the choice of how the country moves forward.
