Require election & manifesto pledges to be implemented and legally enforced

Closed 157 signatures

What the petition asks

We think any promises or gestures made to obtain voters during an election run-up including in the party manifesto, to have to be acted on and upheld / made law once in power. So no U turns can be made when in power, which would lead to the acting government / individuals to be removed from power.
We think that too many times does a party get in to power then, rescind on policy's, manifesto promises or direction that will of gained them voters in the lead up to an election, for political gain of votes and seats. We think legal action should be allowed to be taken against the government to remove it from power including prosecution of individuals that may have misrepresented voters which we think would make elections more transparent and better represented for the public.
