Meh like I said give us all a nudge when it hits 10 million and they're verified to actually be from people in the UK. Until then it means nothing, other than that it's a well-advertised poll. It's not news that 2 million people want Labour out. More than 2 million people never wanted them in.
Near or over 4,000,000 voted only Reform in July so they're all, or near all, likely to sign this stupid nonsense of a petition.
Because most of them are probably beyond reason.
Only believing in democracy as long as they win.

Not one single party in parliament at present would want another general election I'd say.
Plus until Theresa May revoked it, the Coalition had put in place the fixed term parliament of NO general election held until the end of the 5 year terms.
It's really sad how little it seems that some of the people who do vote, seem to have little idea of democracy in the UK and even in our current electoral system.
