The Prime Minister should call an immediate general election to allow the British public to have their say on how we are governed, we should not be made to wait until January 2025
Let know Sunak know there really is people who want an election.
Personally, it’s less about actually expecting an election to be called as a result of the petition and more about publicly announcing our discontent at the current government. The media must address it eventually, and the opposition will use it against them.
There are independent candidates who are getting more votes for them in local elections than the Tory candidate. They knew people don’t like them, they don’t care.
The problem with political activism these days is that people think that making a submission form on a government website is the same as actually doing something.
And I’d prefer it if they just did the thing.
In this case no action is actually required, just don’t vote for them whenever the general election comes around, but generally speaking I wish people would stop using this pointless website. It was created to make people think they’re taking action in a society they have no agency in.
So no there absolutely is “stress” and it’s that morons keep thinking that they’re doing something when they’re doing f all.
No one expects a result from this. What is all about is, stopping the BS that Sunak spouts, when he states that no one wants an election. Get a million signatures on that petition, and he becomes a fish in a barrel.
Has there ever been a petion on that site that didn’t just get a boiler plate “We discussed it and No” equivalent response?

Then don’t sign the petition. No need to stress.
