Rejected petition Make political broadcasting accountable to the ASA

Since 2003, political advertising campaigns are not accountable to the ASA for their advertising. The electoral commission was supposed to set up a code of conduct, but did not. As a result, politicians are allowed to lie to the electorate to get votes without accountability.
