This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament

Petition Change the law to allow use of the 'Royal Prerogative' by Prime Ministers ONLY when there is a direct threat to the UK mainland.

More details

Recent prime ministers have seen it as a right of passage into the history of this country to take us into war, anybody's war. Present day politicians simply do not have the integrity, probity, basic honesty nor honour for us to be sure that when he or she uses the Royal Prerogative to overrule parliament, he or she is not merely doing it to further his or her own interests on the world stage. Prime Ministers MUST be constrained to having the Prerogative available to them ONLY when it's use has a DIRECT bearing against a DIRECT threat to the UK.
