Rejected petition Prosecute those who lied during the EU referendum for affecting the outcome.

Whether a UK resident voted for remaining in the EU or voted to leave the EU, both remain and leave camps made lies and promises that couldn't be kept, the leave camp campaign bus being just one of them.

The people who did this before the vote have affected the outcome and should be prosecuted.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The Government and Parliament aren't responsible for prosecuting people. That is the responsibility of the police and the Crown Prosecution Service, which is independent.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
