Starmer faces mounting pressure as petition for new election hits 3 million signatures

Starmer petition news

A petition demanding an immediate General Election has surpassed three million signatures, adding m,ore political pressure on Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.

The petition, started by a frustrated pub landlord, criticises the Labour government for allegedly reneging on election promises and has gained momentum among discontented voters.

With a Westminster Hall debate scheduled for January 6, Starmer faces public outcry over controversial policies, including cuts to Winter Fuel Payments, a £40 billion tax hike, and the removal of preferential inheritance tax breaks for farmers. Adding to the discontent, Labour’s failure to address compensation for Waspi women has further fuelled calls for change, with pensioners and Reform UK supporters amplifying the petition’s reach.

Despite Labour’s commanding super-majority of 411 MPs and Starmer’s firm stance against holding another election, the petition reflects widespread frustration among voters. The backlash comes after a decade marked by frequent trips to the polls and rising dissatisfaction with recent government decisions.

While the petition’s outcome is unlikely to force an election, its massive support echoes similar campaigns that have previously garnered millions of signatures, such as the call to revoke Article 50 in 2019.

  1. Starmer is a Global Zionist who’s wife is J3wi$h. This explains his ‘unwavering support’ of Israel, which has the U.K. Prime Minister blackmailed into promoting the Zionist Talmudic agendas there in the U.K., with Noahide Law over-riding British Law based on Common Law and the Magna-Carta.
    The Irish have had enough of the Zionist-based immigration which are designed to minimise the White English-speaking Christian Culture. and are acting on the instructions of the Irish Citizenry!
    Nigel Farage, George Galloway, Tommy Robinson and Andrew Bridgen have a role to play in the next UK snap-election, hopefully with all three assuming office and stopping the Talmudic-based terror currently gripping the U.K.
