Rejected petition Regulate political advertising to stop voters being lied to and misled

Since 1999, political advertising has been excluded from the Advertising Standards Authority and is totally unregulated.
Although the Neill Committee recommended that political parties establish a code, this never happened and unfounded claims and promises are made without any accountability.
