Have you not seen the opinion polls lately? The government are around 20 points behind and have been for some time.

It’s already fairly obvious that people are unhappy with the government.

Opinion polls can be handwaved a lot easier than the government needing to discuss it in Parliament.

But wait a moment - Are you worried about the opposition having another stick to hit the government with? If you don’t support having another general election then don’t sign the petition.

What? When did I say that I don’t support having a general election? 🤔

I’m just not going to sign a useless petition that’s the equivalent of virtue-signalling and will achieve nothing.

The people who sign this will obviously not be supporters of the government and a general election called now would likely see them out of power, so why would they listen to it?

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
