Rejected petition Proportional Representation is NOT National Representation.

In a General Election we should be able to vote as we do in referendums. Proportional Representation does NOT represent the true will of the Nation. Only the major political parties can get candidates in ALL constituencies. This makes it an unfair platform for the minor political parties.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. If you'd like a specific change to the voting system used for UK general elections, you could ask for that specific change.
