British People Have Had ENOUGH…
In a striking display of public discontent, close to 750,000 people at time of writing have signed an official parliamentary petition demanding an immediate general election in the UK.
Titled “Call an immediate general election,” the petition argues that the public seeks urgent change from the current Labour government, which won power just over a year ago in July 2024.
Under UK rules, any petition surpassing 100,000 signatures triggers consideration for a parliamentary debate, a threshold this one has far exceeded—it has also prompted a government response, with a debate now pending.
The petition reflects mounting frustration with Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s leadership,
Public dissatisfaction with Starmer stems from a range of issues, including perceived broken promises, economic struggles, and controversial welfare reforms that have sparked backlash over cuts and austerity measures.
The economy is stagnant with no growth and rising costs.
The Conservative government laid the groundwork, but the Labour government has exacerbated the woes.
Another key flashpoint is mass migration. This week it was revealed that the UK has seen nearly 50,000 migrants cross the English Channel in small boats since Starmer became Prime Minister on July 5, 2024.
This figure, reached in just 401 days, marks a significantly faster rate of crossings compared to Starmer’s predecessors, with Rishi Sunak taking 603 days and Boris Johnson 1,066 days to hit the same threshold.
The numbers of crossings are up by almost 50 percent on last year.
The surge has fueled criticism of Labour’s immigration policies, particularly Starmer’s pledge to “smash the gangs” behind the crossings, which critics argue has failed to deter the unprecedented influx.
Opponents argue this has strained public services, housing, and infrastructure, fueling perceptions that Starmer has normalized high immigration levels without adequate controls.
Another flashpoint is spiralling crime.
As a backdrop to this, freedom of speech is under attack, with many who have expressed their discontent finding themselves targets.
Draconian new laws, introduced on the prext of ‘protecting’ children, have immediately been used to stifle free expression.
Starmer’s personal popularity has plummeted to record lows, with his net approval rating dipping to -41% in recent surveys, while Labour’s government approval has sunk to -55%, the lowest ever recorded for the party.
Only 23% of Britons view him favourably, a sharp decline from post-election highs, amid accusations of losing authority and alienating voters. Dissatisfaction has reached 61%, his highest as Labour leader, painting a picture of a prime minister fading in public esteem.
Amid this turmoil, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has exploded in popularity, often leading opinion polls and overtaking both Labour and the Conservatives in voting intentions.
Farage now boasts higher favourability than Starmer, capitalising on anti-immigration sentiments and promises of radical change.
In a desperate attempt to stave off complete annihilation, Starmer’s government recently announced it is going to lower the voting age to 16, effectively allowing children to vote.
If an election were held today, recent MRP projections suggest Reform could emerge as the largest party, potentially securing the most seats in a hung parliament or even nearing a majority, while Labour and the Tories face wipeout risks.
This surge underscores a seismic shift, with Reform poised to capitalise on voter anger over migration, economic woes, and establishment fatigue.
As the petition gains traction, it highlights a electorate hungry for upheaval.

Like Elensky who would rather be anywhere than Kiev, Starmer would rather be anywhere than the country he was elected to lead. There are dozens of problems to try to solve, as well as those featured. How about homelessness, eating or heating, the proliferation of food banks, etc., etc.?
Starmer is merely a mediocre puppet. What is happening was planned long ago by those who run the show. A different puppet will still have the same script. Think about it. Teflon Tony Bliar isn’t in a high security prison suitable for war criminals. Starmer was director of public prosecutions when Saville was allowed to sexually abuse all sorts of people and things. You only get the version of history deemed suitable by the rulers. The media and entertainment industry is owned and used by them. Remember how long Thames Television lasted after screening Death on the Rock, about the British Government murder of “IRA” suspects in Gibraltar, or Sue Lawley after grilling Maggie Thatcher about the Belgrano sinking. Go with the flow and make the best of it you can.
They’re pushing Civil war?? what with?, a stick with a nail in it. It’s now obvious why all the guns were restricted so unnecessarily.
I wasn’t meaning what goes on behind the scenes, that’s a given. What I meant was that the average Brit is now noticing that his life is getting worse while his supposed leader is jaunting off and poking his nose into things that don’t concern either of them.
Yes I agree Belyi. My comment wasn’t aimed at you. I’m aware that you’re fully aware of our situation. Many however still think that changing to a new puppet will solve things.
Teflon Tony is a covert member of the aristocracy, so he’s a made man. So he’s untouchable. He was appointed to the Order of the Garter in 2022. There are a maximum 24 none Royals, all the rest are Royals, Brits and others. Nobody can seriously think that they appoint plebs to the Order surely? John Major is a member too, remember his plebian bio? All confected, same as Bliar
General Elections are run for the entertainment of the masses. To make them think that we live in a Democracy. Both teams are on the same side and always have been. And modern Britain has never been a Democracy in reality. It’s an Oligarchy and has been since the Glorious Revolution in 1688 latest, certainly since the Bank of England’s creation in 1694, 331 years and counting
