Bar all sitting 650 MPs from standing in the forthcoming GE

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

In the past 3 1/2 years since the EU referendum the current 650 MPs in Westminster have achieved nothing regarding BRexit. As there is nothing to suggest that they could achieve anything given a further term we need a wholesale clear out of the present dead wood.
Westminster has been very good with the negativity and stating what they do not want but very light on positivity on what they do want. They are not respecting the views of their constituents but following their own personal agendas and views on BRexit. Not good enough.

Why it was rejected

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

Decisions on election candidates if a matter for individual political parties and for the electors in each constituency.

You could start a petition calling for term limits for MPs if that's something you'd like to see happen.
