Citizens ~ General Election ~ Law ~ Parliament ~ UK ~ UK citizens
Change the law, so that UK citizens can force an immediate General Election.
At present a vote of no confidence can only be called by parliament, leaving majority governments in an almost untouchable position. This means that governments can break promises at any time.
Citizens should be able to hold the government to account at all times, not just during General Elections. The law needs to be changed so that a petition of 'no confidence' to parliament, containing the signatures of at least 51% of the population means a General Election is immediately called.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
