Trigger a by-election if a sitting MP is convicted of any criminal offence

Petition Details

MPs who represent us in parliament should be held to a higher level of accountability than others. Their conduct is to be above reproach but should they fall short of that standard then the constitutients who elected them should have the right to decide if they are still fit to represent.

Additional Information

This petition looks to have a by-election triggered if an MP is convicted of any criminal offence to allow us, their employer a chance to decide if they are still fit to be employed as our representative.
