Anything more than 10 million signatures would still not be taken seriously. Debated yes but binned later.
As Jean Paul Sartre once wrote, " The Die is Cast" ou "Les Jeux Sont Faits" for the benefit of our European friends.
This current Labour Government will not be changing course any time soon. The latter are controlled by the puppet masters in Whitehall and beyond.
Any Political Party which is elected to run the UK ( that's a joke in itself) will have their hands tied by self same puppet masters and told what to do.
Remember Rachel Reeves when she was crying and distressed in the House Of Commons? Poor lass had been given a dressing down by, I suspect, the men in suits. She has been made to look incompetent. Even her hands have been tied. Statistically if the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer goes/resigns the financial markets become jittery. The Prime Minister would lose all credibility, what's left of it. Sir Keir Starmer would have no other option but to seek an audience with the King before calling a GE.
Tell me I am wrong.
