Change the The Parliamentary Oath to an oath to the people and to uphold the law

Petition Details

Change the The Parliamentary Oath to an oath to the people and to uphold the law instead of an oath to the Monarchy
The duty of an hon. Member is to represent their constituents in Parliament
Therefore an hon. Member should be able to make their oath to the people they represent. Not the Monarchy

Additional Information

To recognise that the principal duty of hon. Members is to represent their constituents in Parliament; also recognise that some hon. Members would prefer to swear an oath of allegiance to their constituents and the nation rather than the Monarch; and therefore calls on the Leader of the House to bring forward legislative proposals to introduce an optional alternative Parliamentary oath allowing hon. Members to swear allegiance to their constituents and the nation and to pledge to uphold the law rather than one pledging personal allegiance to the serving Monarch
