Rejected petition General Election to be held before October 17th without blocking no deal brexit

The people of this country deserve a general election as soon as practicable possible without the requirement to remove no deal as this is a central part of any possible brexit negotiation that is to take place after the election is held. This should be held before the forthcoming EU council meeting

More details

The only evidence needed is to look at the current situation in parliament, we are stuck in a deadlock and the people are now being held to ransom over the request to remove a no deal brexit from the negotiation table. All options must be open to the PM (whoever that may be after an election) to ensure that he/she has the full suite of negotiating capabilities behind them.
