Rejected petition Compel Parliament to have a General Election immediately

The country needs an election now as the Government is no longer in a position to govern. The Conservative party no longer have a majority so cannot effectively pass legislation & the opposition parties are doing all they can at stymying parliament. The only option now is for a General Election.

More details

Currently the Conservative party are not in control of Parliament and are a government that cannot govern. There are calls for the resignation of the Prime Minster, but he will not. The opposition are refusing to table a motion of no confidence or support a general election. If the opposition parties will not table a motion of no confidence or support an election, that means they are showing they have confidence in the current government. The people need to have there say via a General election
