Rejected petition A referendum on the recognition of a Palestinian State?

I did not vote for this and this was unilaterally decided by the Government without seeking consent from the electorate.

More details

Personally, the government does not have a mandate to make this decision and I suspect that this is policy would not be accepted by the majority of the electorate if it was put to a referendum.
