Rejected petition Ask Parliament to call a General Election
Rejected on
Devisiveness caused by the Referendum is tearing the country and political parties apart. We need a definitive vote backed up by Party Action Manifestos including IN or OUT of EU so we can re-unite the country and end the long term effects and ensure our Democracy is preserved.
We are in a time of Political if not Constitutional crisis.
The country needs to make a reasoned decision about what it means to be part of the EU or not , which clearly was not the case in the referendum where several people voted with their hearts rather than their head, often on mis-information, possibly from both sides. The lack of leadership and political in-fighting is having a major effect on the economy short term and who knows what effects long term. Let's resolve it Democratically
