We demand a General Election

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We, the British public, demand an immediate General Election. Following the resignation of Liz Truss, we have lost all faith in this Government's ability to run our country competently, with integrity and honesty
The incompetency of our present Government is shameful. We are sick of u-turns and blatant disregard for the welfare of the majority of British citizens
