Petition
Change the law, so that UK citizens can force an immediate General Election
Rejected

What the petition asks
At present a vote of no confidence can only be called by parliament, leaving majority governments in an almost untouchable position. This means that governments can break promises or make decisions that are destructive to the country, and the electorate can do nothing until the next election.
To act for the people in a true democratic position. Honoring the will of the UK citizens.
