Petition

Call for an immediate uk election

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Reform UK and the Conservative Party have both called for an immediate general election after the resignation of Kier Starmer from the Labour Party.
A public referendum would expose the general mood of the people and give a firm mandate for an immediate general election.
After the resignation of Keir Starmer as leader of the Labour Party and his role as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, it is now obvious that the Labour Party as a whole is not fit for purpose, that purpose being to rule the country and protect its people from harm.
