MAPPED: UK towns and cities where most voters want Keir Starmer to call a general election
There are strong calls across the nation urging Sir Keir Starmer to call a general election.
A map showing where voters are calling for a general election across the UK has revealed the towns and cities most eager to see Sir Keir Starmer bring the country back to the polls.
A new petition has been created urging the government to call a General Election as Sir Keir’s approval ratings keep plummeting.
And early on Sunday (November 24), a petition map was shared on X by Inevitable West showing where the biggest support for a General Election is.
An accompanying caption read: “The General Election petition has now DESTROYED the 200k target within 6 hours – just after midnight in Britain.
“The British people are about to completely humiliate the Labour party.”

The map showed big support across England, with dark red areas indicating the highest percentage of constituents backing the call for a General Election.
Regions such as the Midlands and the North East of England show particularly strong support, while parts of Wales and the South East also feature prominently.
Areas in Scotland and Wales have relatively lighter shades, but some support is there as well.
The map received plenty of reaction online with many users saying that the number of signatures will increase.
One person wrote: “400k by end of tomorrow,” with another adding that “the British people want their nation back”.

Others shared screenshots after signing the petition.
At the time of writing, the petition stood at over 283,000 signatures, meaning that the Parliament will have to consider it for debate.
This comes as Sir Keir’s approval rating keeps plummeting.
Less than five months after his landslide election victory, a new Ipsos poll has revealed that two-thirds of Britons feel worse off under his leadership.
Labour has faced backlash over unpopular decisions, including the means testing of the winter fuel payment, as well as controversies such as the “freebies row.”
