What the petition asks
There are current cases where Political Party's are being asked to deselect their sitting MP's but are being told that Central offices make that decision. On important matters, if an MP refuses to support their Constituents decision, actively goes against it, then it is non representative.
Damian Grieve MP for one and votes of no confidence in Labour MP's by their Constituency Party's
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This petition is calling on political parties, not the UK Government or Parliament, to take action.
