Rejected petition Mp's should read all of the EU Brexit paper and allowed a 'free' vote

Party politics is dominating the issue Brexit which is too important.
Members of parliament should be allowed use their own judgement taking into account the opinions of the people who voted for them.
Today, the votes are looking as though they are going to be dominated by party politics.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept petitions about things aren't the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament. Deciding whether something should be a free vote is a decision for the political parties not the UK Parliament or Government.

There are already petitions about releasing the documents so that MPs can read them. We can't accept new petitions when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition. We think that these petitions are similar:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
