Call a General Election

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Call a General Election so that the British People can decide if they want tax cuts for the very rich at the expense of ordinary working people.
This Government was voted in by a few thousand Conservative members, is enacting policies for which it has no democratic mandate and which were not in the 2019 Conservative Manifesto. It is the democratic right of the British People that they have the opportunity to decide whether they want these policies which will massively impact their lives. Not having this opportunity would be undemocratic.
