Rejected petition Demand a general Election, when David Cameron steps down in October 2016.
Rejected on
As the current prime minister has retired due to this messy EU referendum, we now need a general election to appoint a new one. Our country's welfare being left to a Tory government is a very scary thought but in the hands of the likes of Michael Gove, Jeremy Hunt or Teresa May is even scarier.
