Rejected petition Call a general election: We need a leader with a mandate

The UK is at a monumental fork in the road. The decisions taken in the next few days, weeks, and months will determine our fate for decades to come.

We need a leader with a clear mandate from the people: We need a general election.

More details

In order to take decisive action on the important issues that face us, our Prime Minister needs to have a credible mandate.

Internal elections within the Tory Party mean that the next UK Prime Minister will be voted in by 0.2% of the population. This means that our next PM will lack credibility within parliament and on a global stage.

Calling a general election enables us to take the decisive action needed to move our country forward.
