Rejected petition Call a General Election before 31st October 2019

It has become clear that Parliament is completely out of touch with the people. Many MPs' who were elected on a manifesto that said "no deal is better than a bad deal," have reneged on this promise and jumped to other parties. The public needs a chance to have their say. We need a General Election.

More details

A General Election will give us the opportunity to choose how we want to move forward as a country. Not just with Brexit but with many other salient issues. Such as crime, education and the NHS.

A gridlocked Parliament unable to decide what it wants does not benefit anyone. A General Election is now the only plausible route out.
