Petition

Deceiving the Electorate should immediately result in a General election.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Call an immediate General Election due to proven deceit to the public, regarding a non existing "black hole" to justify exhorbarant tax rises.
This current Government has not only lied to the Electorate before election in their manifesto. They have continued to lie during their time in Parliament to justify unfair tax raises.
Voter confidence is at an all time low in our democracy, and this Government should be held accountable.
