Petitions gaining more than 500,000 signatures should force a referendum

Petition Details

Legislation should be enacted to force a referendum if a parliamentary e-petition gains more than 500,000 signatures.

Additional Information

The current e-petition system can be ignored by an incumbent government.

True democracy requires the incumbent government to listen to the people and e-petitions are supposed to be a way to do this, but they are too often ignored.

Forcing a referendum for very popular e-petitions would be a way to ensure that the Government cannot ignore e-petitions.
