Call a General Election in August 2026. Let the People decide our DEMOCRATIC PM

Call a General Election in August 2026. Let the People decide our DEMOCRATIC PM — 21 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

We call for an immediate General Election so that the British public can democratically choose the next leader of the United Kingdom. The office of Prime Minister should be decided by the will of the British people. We therefore urge Parliament to dissolve and call a General Election.

Additional details

Following the withdrawal of Sir Keir Starmer as Prime Minister, we call for an immediate General Election. The British public should have the right to choose the next leader of the United Kingdom through a democratic vote, not through internal party decisions. The office of Prime Minister must reflect the will of the people. We urge Parliament to call a General Election and allow voters to decide the future leadership of our country.
