Petition Introduce a mid-term referendum on whether to hold an early General Election

We urge the Government to allow the public to decide if they think the Government is fulfilling its obligations and pre-election pledges by holding a midterm referendum within a six-month window of either side of the mid-term of that Parliament.

More details

We believe this could help ensure that the elected Government is fulfilling its responsibilities to make good on pre-election pledges and was acting in the interests of the country.
