Rejected petition Calls for an Early election for the new Prime Minister in October

David Cameron has announced following the results of the EU referendum that he will be standing down. The Conservative party is made up of 150,000 members and they will be deciding the new PM - this is undemocratic and unbritish. Do we really want to leave the fate of the U.K. in the hands 150,000?
