Background

The ongoing shortage of driving test appointments across the UK is severely affecting the lives of countless citizens. Many are forced to wait for years, disrupting their ability to work, study, and maintain everyday independence.

Should the Prime Minister be unable or unwilling to resolve this issue promptly, we demand that they take responsibility and resign, making way for leadership capable of meeting this essential public need.
