Rejected petition We call on the Conservative Party to call a General Election within six months

Today Liz Truss was voted by the Conservative Party as the next Prime minister of Britain with a total of 80,000 votes in a country with a population of around 70 million, when a new PM is selected it should be a rule that a general election should be called within 6 months of that party's vote.

More details

We are supposed to live in a democratic society then according to democracy the people of the country should decide the new PM, in 2019 when Boris Johnson was voted leader of the party he called an immediate election within 6 months and won a large majority this should also be the case with Liz Truss who only won by a small majority over Rishi Sunak let the people of this country decide on who they want to run the country not just leave it ip yo one party to decide our country's future.
