  • Keir Starmer might think that the petition is a stunt no matter how many millions of signatures it gathered, but he'd be wrong.

The article from Express.co.uk discusses a petition urging Sir Keir Starmer, the Labour Party leader, to call for a general election immediately. This call to action stems from dissatisfaction with the current Conservative government, particularly highlighted by the recent sacking of Suella Braverman and the appointment of David Cameron as Foreign Secretary. The petition, which has garnered over 10,000 signatures, reflects public frustration with the government's handling of various issues including the economy, public services, and political scandals. It argues that the current administration lacks a mandate to govern effectively, especially after recent political reshuffles and policy U-turns. The petition's supporters believe that a new election would provide the UK with a government that has a fresh mandate to address the country's challenges.
