Rule that MP’s not representing the majority of their constituents stand down.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many MP’s were given a clear mandate by their constituents to either remain or leave the EU and have since acted in direct opposition to such mandates bringing the house into disrepute both at local, national and international arenas risking the future democracy and stability of the nation.

Why it was rejected

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

The UK Government and Parliament are not responsible for removing MPs from office because of their views or opinions.

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

You could ask your own MP to vote according to the result of referendum in your constituency. You can find out who your MP is and how to contact them here:
