Judicial inquiry into the conduct of Vote Leave during the 2016 EU Referendum
Now that Vote Leave has dropped its appeal to the findings of the Electoral Commission that it unlawfully diverted funds to BeLeave a judicial inquiry should be held. The scope of the inquiry should include the individual conduct of senior politicians including Michael Gove and Boris Johnson.
The background to this matter is set out in the following newspaper article

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions which call for actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament. It's the responsibility of the police and Electoral Commission to investigate whether electoral law has been broken, and ultimately for the courts to decide.
There are petitions calling for inquiries into the EU referendum campaign and Brexit, which you might like to sign if they call for something you want to happen:
