The 2015 election results are not the result of a true democracy. The conservative majority is clearly due to a rigged election, most of us where given pencil to make our cross in the desired candidate box which could easily be rubbed out and a cross drawn in another box.
The winner of each election always seems to be the party with the most money. Clearly we do not live in a democratic society, this is an aristocratic one at best.
Thousands of people have also been turned away in Hackney despite turning up on- time. Understandably these people are angry and upset at being denied a say.
I'm petitioning for a nation-wide re-run of the 2015 UK election
To all,
We believe that the results of the recent election are not a fair portrayal of the views of the country. There are concerns about the way the voting was carried out, one simple but important issue is the use of pencil to make our vote instead of pen. Pencil can easily be rubbed out and a cross made in another candidates box.
Another issue is that 200,000 postal votes have been stolen. Obviously in a democracy, the voting system should be fair. I'm hard pressed to find any supporters of the consevatives, most do not want a conservative majority. However it seems that the party with the most votes is always the party with the most money, not the most support.
Thank you for taking the time to read of our concerns, please take heed.

Thank you everyone who has signed, shared and is talking about this issue. We cannot be ignored.
The group 38degrees has also started a similar petition addressed to the Queen. They have slightly more power to make a change as they are a recognised group and I would be glad if you could also sign theirs too.

Thank you all for you're support. We've reached over 1000 signatures! However we want as many people as possible to get the message so share via social media, email, talk about it in person etc.
Once we have enough supporters the petition will be given to the target audience. With so many people demanding a re-run, they cannot ignore our concerns on such a vital issue.
