What the petition asks
The recent conduct exemplified by MP’s on both sides of the Houses of Parliament has been witnessed by the general public and around the world. The manner which MP’s are currently representing themselves, in an elected capacity, does not meet the standards expected by the general public.
MP’s have forgot that they are the servants to the people of the United Kingdom and as such: the people should decide their fate as MP’s.
Recent events have illustrated that MP’s need reminding that our country’s constitutional monarchy grants sovereignty to us: the people.
Therefore we, the public, believe the whole house, on both sides and across all parties, must be placed under the ultimate scrutiny of the public via a general election at the earliest opportunity.
