Closed petition Hold a General Election if the Government avoids an Opposition Day vote again.

Closed on 25 April 2018

Government abstained from the Opposition Day vote on Universal Credit (18/10/17), insulting both democracy & Parliament.

In the words of John Bercow: “This institution is bigger than any one party & is bigger than any government”

If the Government doesn’t respect this then we must replace it.
