Recall MP’s who vote in Parliament against the will of their constituents

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

MP’s such as Anna Soubry, Yvette Cooper and Toby Perkins to name a few have consistently voted in a manner to delay or prevent Brexit from happening, despite their constituents voting to leave the EU in the referendum.
Changes to the Recall of MP’s Act 2015 may be required

Why it was rejected

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

How an MP votes would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.

The UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for removing MPs from office because of their views or opinions.
