Members of parliament to respect Mr Cameron pledge to the British People

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Mr Cameron while in Government said a democratic vote to either stay in the EU or come out would be put to the people of the UK and once taken would be honoured it would be the people's choice not members of parliament ,so why are members allowed to try to break Mr Cameron promise?

Why it was rejected

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

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

In any case, how an MP votes would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the UK Government or Parliament as a whole.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
