Set up a Citizens' Assembly for public engagement at Parliament

Petition Details

Public Engagement is seen to be in distress, with a feeling of disconnect and distrust between voters and House of Commons

We ask that a representative sample of the electorate is invited with remuneration to engage with issues and MPs at Parliament, and make recommendations on current affairs
