Replace votes in the House of Commons with public votes using a voting app

Closed 40 signatures

What the petition asks

We shouldn’t just elect MPs who then vote on our behalf. We should elect MPs who are responsible for tabling business for the public to decide upon. We have the technology to create a mobile device application that allows for regular public voting from home.
This country and life as we knew it has changed so much for so many reasons over the past few years. Not enough decisions that have life changing outcomes go to the people.

Life has become extremely dynamic here in the UK with big decisions being made all the time. Our system needs reform to ensure the people continue to be heard.
