Rejected petition Hold a new general election this year, in light of the EU referendum.

This government promised to cut the deficit. They failed. They promised to bring immigration down. They failed. Now they promised to keep us in the EU and they failed at that as well. The people no longer have confidence in this government, and we call for a new general election as soon as possible.
