Petition Action

Change the Petition Parliament website to register opposition to motions.

Petition Details

With the freedom to protest, comes the responsibility to be accountable. The right of British people to petition Parliament would be more relevant, and useful to our representatives, if those who seek support for their petition also 'risk' recording those who happen to disagree.

Additional Information

I would like parliament to change the official online Petition to include the opportunity for a balancing register of objectors to the motion. A simple technique to extend democracy and better gauge public opinion. Please provide a mechanism to object to the proposed motion in official Petitions to Parliament.
