Rejected petition Make politicians be fair, clear, and truthful during all election campaigns

For democracy to work politicians must speak honestly and clearly. They must not lie or mislead. This helps us decide who to support and how to vote. In the referendum campaign both sides failed us. Politicians should be legally required to be fair, clear, and not misleading during all campaigns.
