Closed petition Manifestos

Closed on

All parties make promises in their manifestos which are not dependent on force majeure issues such as major economic upsets. These, in effect, are contractual and should be honoured but often are not, the vote on the EU being a particularly good example.

The proposal is that such promises are made to be binding in law.
