I think the nation has woken up to the error it has made.

We've seen this sort of thing before, and it's not the way to run a democratic society. This isn't Strictly, it's the real world, and we shouldn't be having mini-referenda every time there's a flap. Our system gives politicians a set term to be in charge before they can be re-assessed and kept or kicked out.

This isn't a referendum.  It's people registering their disillusionment (and I'm being kind there) with the government.

I wonder how many votes there would be if there was a charge of £1 per vote.

[Atheist]

...or if voters had to vote in person at the nearest village hall or church...

[Pegasus16]

It's a petition.

[davebro3]

Debate ain't in the House though, is it. Some committee will talk a bit then agree to dismiss it as not possible.

 

If you want a GE you need to petition Charlie to dissolve his parliament.

[ToraToraTora]

it seems to be going at about 100k per hour.

If it was £1 per vote, I would buy as many as I could afford...

 

 

[Old_Geezer]

If it were the rich & powerful would simply buy control. Not a good system.

[Peter Pedant]

yeah Brexit is a disaster - oh oh - you mean you dont like present Labour adminstration - well they were elected so get over it

I remember a mod droning on about this over Brexit

[ToraToraTora]

speeding up, the last 100k took 52 mins
