Trigger a General Election in the wake of the EU referendum result
We the undersigned call on Parliament to debate a motion of no confidence in Her Majesty's Government as required to trigger a General Election under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011.
We urgently need to clarify whether the people of the UK really do want Brexit. In light of the narrow referendum result and the many negative repercussions unfolding, and the Prime Minister's resignation, a snap General Election would clarify whether narrow support for Brexit translates into a pro-Brexit parliamentary majority. If it does, Brexit negotiations can begin. But if a pro-Remain majority emerges then Parliament would have a legally binding mandate to disregard the referendum result.
