More details

You should be able to sign against a petition.

This way we might get a better idea if the citizens want something.

EG if a petition gathers support of 1000 we might think that everyone favours it, but there might be 500,000 vehemently against it but cant show that. At present we only hear the views of the people who are keen on it.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
