Hold Politicians to account when failing to carry out promises and commitments!

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

It is becoming more of a common problem that Politicians are failing to follow through on promises and commitments made during elections and referendums and as a result of this they’re getting votes and elected. Then as soon as this happens they reverse their commitments without reason or apologise.

Things such as the £350million a week commitment to the NHS if we leave, the commitment to reducing immigrant to the 10,000’s, Building enough affordable housing and EU reform. It is scary how easy politicians find it to completely fail to follow through on promises and commitments they make during elections and it is becoming more of a regular issue. They are saying anything to secure votes, then once elected they fail to honor their promises to voters and they do this without consequence.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We don't know what you mean by "hold politicians to account". We think you might want the same action as this petition:

A life-time ban from politics, and punishment, for MPs that renege on promises.
