24,278 people voted for Gordon Brown in 2005. But surprisingly 43,536 (and counting) people have signed a petition on the Number 10 website calling for Gordon Brown to resign!
Partly, the white working-class sent petitions to the Parliament to abolish slavery. For example in 1788 (in Manchester) 10,000 people signed one petition. Then again in 1792 (in Manchester) 20,000 people signed another petition. This put pressure on the Parliament to end slavery. The campaining still went on even after the slave trade was abolished since many slaves were still kept in captivity. By 1814, 1 500 000 people had signed these petitions.
