Demand A General Election On
Thursday 9th June 2022
Let The People Of Great Britain Decide THEIR Future
ABOUT US
We are a coalition of voters from different parties, who have come together with one common cause - that of demanding that a General Election is held no later than Thursday 9th June 2022 in order to sort out the seemingly never ending multitude of problems the country is facing and indeed has faced for the past few years.
Whether it be concerns over Brexit, Covid-19, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, inequalities in society, the rank hypocrisy of Boris Johnson's Government, the 'Green New Deal', Channel 4's Privatisation, Environmental Issues, Food and Fuel prices rocketing and the sense that we are trapped in a never ending scenario of problems and issues which would normally have brought about votes of no confidence in the Government of the day, us ordinary people have had no say in any of this.
We have been effectively silenced and shunned, told that our voice is not important and have had to watch from the side-lines as our country has been torn apart through infighting, division and severe economic issues. Emotionally and financially, many of us have been bled dry.
We cannot be silent anymore - we must now have our say, to disallow us our voice would be so anti-democratic that it would cause the collapse of the country.
The demand is simple - a General Election must be announced and held by Thursday 9th June 2022 through the passing of the Early Parliamentary General Election Act 2022. This can be done via the motion being supported by the Political Parties in the House of Commons and there is currently enough time to get such a bill passed, ratified in the House of Lords and then for it to receive Royal Assent.
By holding a General Election on this date, we the people can finally have our say on the many burning issues of the day:
* Brexit and how should it work out as well as should we re-join the European Union or not?
* Covid-19 and the best way out of this crisis for the United Kingdom.
* The role of the United Kingdom in sorting out the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
* How do we become a Green Society without bankrupting the country and its people?
* How best can the United Kingdom recover economically from the Pandemic?
* How can I be assured that I won't be priced out of heating or eating?
* How do we get the United Kingdom to become a fairer and more tolerant society?
* How can we better approach the issues of Migration and people desperately seeking Asylum here in the United Kingdom?
* How can we protect Freedom of Speech and Democracy in the United Kingdom?
* How can we protect the right to protest and continue to speak out on the important matters of the day?
* How can we prevent Supply Chain issues and shortages of Essential Workers in the future?
* How can we prevent issues such as the P&O job cuts saga from ever happening again?
* Should the United Kingdom stay together or should England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland be separate independent countries?
* Who is the best person and who is the best Political Party to take the United Kingdom forward?
Whichever way we look at things, the United Kingdom is currently suffering and every day brings with it more and more trouble - from issues regarding Government Ministers and aides to outright rank corruption. This cannot be allowed to continue, for it is an absolute aberration against the qualities expected of our society; that of truth, honesty, decency, duty, fairness, tolerance etc. The nightmare has to end and end soon!
The United Kingdom and its people deserve better and deserve to have their say!
How can we bring around a General Election by Thursday 9th June 2022?
The best way is to mention this site via Social Media and to join in the discussion on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter - link us in with your posts and mention us when discussing Political topics and discussions.
Also, it is crucial that you contact your MP and let him/her/they* know how you feel about this issue and that if they do not back a General Election you will consider voting for a different party. MP's like power and do not wish to lose their grip on it, therefore it is in their best interests to back what their constituents want and if they are good MP's they should relish the challenge of being re-elected.
We are already going to the Polls in May for the Local Council Elections across the United Kingdom, and it would be entirely possible to delay the date of this by a month, if necessary, from Thursday 5th May to Thursday 9th June in conjunction with a General Election. The votes for both the Local and General Elections can happen on the same day, as they have in the past or could be held on different days as appropriate. Plus, not all Councils are having Elections on this date as some are waiting until later in the year or until 2023.
Quite simply, as long as the message and missive is that change is due and that the pressure is kept on for us to all have our say, then MP's and the Media will get the message that the people are demanding change and this will give our campaign the traction it needs.

Your Stories
F.A.Q
What Is The Point Of A General Election In June 2022?
The point is that a General Election is the people's democratic mandate by which they either support or oppose what the current HM Government is doing and to give them either their 'backing or sacking'.
It is, therefore, our chance to either back the current Prime Minister Boris Johnson MP or to elect a new Prime Minister and Leader of the United Kingdom.
We have not had a vote on how best to deal with the problems that are manifesting in the United Kingdom, and a General Election is the only way by which we can sort these out and move forward.
Our Vote is Our Say.

Our Vote is Our Say.
Surely Sorting Out Covid & The Ukraine Conflict Is More Important?
Though it is vital both of these are solved, the United Kingdom cannot wait for these to be solved before we have a General Election and indeed having a General Election will be a help rather than a hindrance in these times.
We need permanent solutions to these and other issues, and it appears that currently we are not getting these from either the United Kingdom nor devolved Governments.
By going to the Polls, we set a democratic mandate for the next HM Government to solve the issues of the day and to move on from these, with the votes on resolving them passed in both the House of Commons and then by the House of Lords and finally by Royal Assent.

A General Election Is Already Planned For 2023/2024, Why Have One Now?
The main reason is that we cannot wait until 2023 or indeed 2024 in order to sort out the issues currently wrecking the United Kingdom. These need to be sorted out as soon as possible and Thursday 9th June 2022 is the ideal date - the end of Spring and just before the Summer Holidays.
If you had a car that was badly damaged, and it urgently needed fixing and everybody around you thought that it would be best for you to fix the issue(s) with the car now rather than later, it would be sheer folly to say 'no, I must wait until next year or 2024 because that is the prescribed order of things.'
Ask yourself why would you want to wait until 2023 or 2024, in order to cast your vote, whereas you could do this a lot sooner.
A General Election is a 'solve all' - from issues such as Covid-19 and the Russia-Ukraine conflict to the economy, the potential independence of the four Home Nations etc. our votes are crucial towards which path we take in solving the issues at hand.
It is sheer folly to wait to have a say, whilst the United Kingdom is suffering - the 'choke point' is here and must be dealt with now for the sake of everybody.

Won't You Need 433 MP's To Agree To This?
It is certainly true that two-thirds of the MP's in the House of Commons would have to support the mechanism whereby the next General Election is on Thursday 9th June 2022, but this is a possible outcome and for different reasons the Political Parties and their Members at Westminster should be supporting the diplomatic and democratic process for the people of the United Kingdom to have their long overdue say.
Before the 2019 General Election, the Liberal Democrats and the Scottish National Party brought around the mechanism by which to enact that General Election. It can be done again by both parties or indeed with the addition of Labour, Plaid Cymru, DUP etc. or, as the Fixed Term Parliament is being removed via legislation by the current HM Government, the Prime Minister Boris Johnson could state his wish for an early General Election in order to put both his mandate and the Conservative Party's Manifesto to the people of the United Kingdom.
All sides of the Political debate and persuasion, as well as all of the Political Parties and their backers and supporters deserve to have their voices heard.

We Already Had A General Election In 2019, We Don't Need A New One!
That may be your opinion and what you believe (and you are, of course, entitled to your point of view), but current polling and trends as well as the general mood of the people of the United Kingdom is that a General Election is the only way that we can move forward as a Nation and have our say on the important things that matter.
Plus, it is not as if we haven't had a number of General Election's in recent years - between 2015 and 2019 we had a General Election every two years which were three overall, mainly due to resolve the Brexit crisis - and 100 years ago between 1922 and 1924 there were YEARLY General Elections! The shortest gap between General Election's is only eight months (February 28th 1974 to October 10th 1974).
It will be 2.6 years since the last General Election, if we go to the Polls at the end of May - significantly longer than the two years between 2015 and 2017 and almost the same period of time as between 2017 and 2019. Therefore, it would not be an anomaly at all, and as restrictions from Covid-19 are going we would also be sure of a decent turn-out of the electorate.
It is NOT a hard and fast rule that General Elections have to be held every four to five years, and during a time of constitutional crisis or no confidence in the Government of the day, it allows the mechanism and apparatus for solving the problems by letting people have the final say - as these people are THE most important.
