After Prime-Ministerial Leadership Change, Make General Elections Mandatory

Petition Details

Change the rules regarding leadership contests with governing parties, if the governing party changes leader and therefore, the country changes Prime-Minister, there should be an immediate General Election to see if the people of Britain support this change.

Additional Information

Being elected by party members only to the most powerful job in the country is wrong. The British people should choose their leader not a select minority of party members.
