Rejected petition Make the PM accountable for not keeping promises made during the election.

Promises made in a manifesto must be made legally binding. Too many governments spin a web of stories during an election to win votes, but ignore their manifesto when they are in office.

More details

MPs must abide by the contract that they made with their constituents during their election. The manifesto must be made legally binding otherwise there is no point in having a manifesto at all.

Democracy is at risk.
