Petition Action

Allow people to use Facebook to vote for politics.

Petition Details

People feel disconnected from politics.
35% of people didn't vote in regards to 'Brexit'.
It's time to modernize the way we vote and re-engage people in political affairs, by using a mass platform like Facebook, we can make voting simple and easy for everyone to get involved and have their say.

Additional Information

People are disconnected from politics, with 35% of the country not voting in regard to 'Brexit' its obvious that people aren't engaged with important matters.

Facebook is a huge platform that engages the country on a daily basis.

I propose we set-up a voting system on Facebook, so that voting becomes simple, effective and easy to participate. In a digital age, where politics is becoming increasingly important, it's time to re-evaluate how we vote and re-engage people in political affairs.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you mean by "vote on politics" or how you would like this to work. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, if you'd like people to be able to vote in a general election through Facebook, you could start a new petition asking for that.
