Petition Action

We, the undersigned, demand that the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act be repealed.

Petition Details

A petition was started a while ago asking for a general election when Cameron resigned. The petition, they say, cannot happen unless the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act is repealed.

Additional Information

Not even a failing Prime Minister can trigger a general election, so like it or not we are stuck for 5 years with a government that the majority have no faith in. Just like at present with pm May now saying BREXIT cannot happen until 2019. This, I believe is completely unacceptable to every UK citizen that voted to Leave the EU.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
