Rejected petition Have a General Election immediately due to having a dysfunctional parliament

There is now a minority government in the UK. Our Prime Minister is being prevented from having a General Election due to a dysfunctional parliament, and cannot enact Government policies. The paralysis of government was never an intended consequence of the Fixed Term Parliament Act.
