Make Boris Johnson liable for any shortfall in the £350mil freed up by Brexit.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Boris Johnson told us the country would be £350 million a week better off after Brexit.

Naturally, it's important to hold such a bold statement to account. As such, a law should be passed insisting that he should personally make up any shortfall, in the event his claim turns out to be false.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
