Politicans should honour & respect the same democratic process that elected them

Petition Details

What is the purpose of Parliament? Its primary function is to serve the people of the United Kingdom
Having specifically asked the people to democratically decide on our future EU membership, does Parliament have the right to then ignore and break their previous solemn promises and pledges to us?

Additional Information

Having failed to agree on our EU membership they asked us to decide for them via a referendum.
They pledged to honour and deliver on the people’s decision. Legislation was passed & the process to Leave began, as defined in Article 50 and subsequently detailed in the ‘Withdrawal Bill’. MPs passed both by large majorities. The backstop position detailed within Article 50 & the Withdrawal Bill (assuming no further agreement or consensus is reached) is we leave & then trade on WTO terms.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
