This petition was submitted during the 2010 to 2015 Parliament
Rejected petition Make Party Election Manifestos Legally Binding
Rejected on
This petition calls upon the government to launch a review into the feasibility of making Party Election Manifestos legally binding. There is a disconnect between voters and politicians because the former do not trust the latter to keep their promises. Making manifestos legally binding would rectify this.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
