Liz Truss resigns as UK prime minister
I 100% support direct democracy but don't really see the point of having
general election
(i.e. electing representatives that then vote instead of you) ahead of schedule.

Do you feel the same about when the conservative government called for an election in 2017 ahead of schedule?

Yes, and fortunately they were punished for it.
Election timing shouldn’t be gameable.
