Rejected petition Make all party political manifestos legally binding.
Politicians must stop 'promising' things to 'get the vote', then say this can no longer be achieved. Legally binding manifestos would solve unrealistic 'promises' and hold politicians to account. The electorate would know exactly what they are voting for and avoid some of the chaos seen over Brexit.
