Closed petition: Criminalise "wilfully deceiving the electorate for personal or political gain"
Closed on
We believe that politicians wilfully deceiving the electorate for personal or political gain should be criminalised.
We think the country cannot rely upon parliamentary self-regulation, and that standards of propriety have declined to the point that the national interest has been compromised.
