Rejected petition Call for general election following government parties during lockdowns

I call on a national general election to have a say in who runs this country. This is gollowing all the revelations of parties in various government buildings during regional and national lockdowns.

More details

This is not about any ongoing investigations but a call for a full public say in to who should lead the country rather than the standing government. My lack of confidence is due to the perception of "one rule does not fit all" following parties alongside the perception of "cronyism". A public vote is the only acceptable way forward.
