PM shrugs off growing backlash
Sir Keir Starmer has brushed off a petition signed by more than two million Brits demanding a snap general election. The PM dismissed the growing backlash and insisted he is "not surprised" people want a re-run.
Frustration is inevitable, says the Prime Minister
Appearing on ITV’s This Morning, the PM argued that frustration is inevitable as his Government is focused on doing the "difficult things first." He mentioned that many people did not vote Labour in the last election and it is not surprising that some may want a re-run, but emphasized that this is not how the system works.
Tech mogul Elon Musk weighs in
Tech mogul Elon Musk shared a post claiming that the petition had broken a record for the fastest time to reach 100,000 signatures. The petition, launched by small business owner Michael Westwood, accuses Labour of breaking election promises and calls for a fresh election.
Support from right-wing politicians and figures
The petition has gained traction, with tens of thousands of names being added every hour after being shared by right-wing politicians and figures like Nigel Farage and Richard Tice. Shadow Business Secretary Andrew Griffith also criticized the Labour government, likening it to a consumer product that could be returned under misselling rules.
