Rejected petition Force the Government to hold a General Election after change of Prime Minister.
We have had David Cameron resign, after the referendum result. He was the PM voted for in the 2015 election. No matter who the new leader of the Tory party is, they will just take over the office, even though they have no mandate from the people. A General Election should be forced in this case.
