Rejected petition Hold a snap general election as Theresa May is an unelected Prime Minister.

Theresa May's becoming Prime Minister unopposed is undemocratic - she has no popular mandate and has not even been voted in by her own party. The instability caused by the Brexit vote makes it crucial that we have a democratically elected PM. A general election is the only democratic way forward.
