This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition We demand: Independent Group (Ltd) MP's must call by-elections IMMEDIATELY
Rejected on
** Please SIGN + SHARE this petition in order to move forward by-elections within the constituencies of MP's who have quit their political parties, yet still hold the seats in their constituencies with no mandate, or democratic support to keep them in position **
These MP's were elected upon their party's manifesto's, mandated by the local constituencies in which they reside.
This is an insult and disgrace, treating people within their communities with contempt and complacency.
Local residents deserve a choice, as to whether these MP's represent them in parliament, now that they have quit the parties they were elected upon.
** If you agree by-elections should be called in their constituencies, please SIGN + SHARE this petition **
