Give MPs a free vote in all e-petiton debates.
In light of what happened in the debate regarding an EU referendum it is an insult to democracy and the British people that a three line whip was imposed on a public petition. This signatories of this petition would like to see the use of whips banned in any debate that results from any public petiton that reachs at least 100,000 signatures.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Whipping is a matter for poltiical parties and not HM Government.
