Make Barnet's Members of Parliament Work For Us
We demand that every candidate signs the MyMP pledge to vote in Parliament in line with the views of the people of Barnet not the party donors, the media or the party leaders. View the MyMP pledge here: www.mymp2015.org.uk
Why is this important?
All over the country people are tired of politicians who promise one thing at election time when they need our votes and then go off to Westminster and ignore what their constituents really want. In a recent survey, 77% of us said we wanted MPs to put the views of their constituents first but only 27% of us thought they actually did.
In constituencies across the UK, voters are fighting back by demanding all parliamentary candidates sign the MyMP pledge. This means any candidate who gets elected agrees to consult with and poll constituents on key parliamentary decisions and vote accordingly.
We have a great opportunity during the election campaign to force our candidates to do politics in a different, genuinely democratic way by demanding they put the views of the people of Barnet first on issues like the NHS, immigration and living standards.
If you live in the London Borough of Barnet, sign the petition and make sure your voice is heard over the next five years.
How it will be delivered
The petition will be sent to all parliamentary candidates standing in the three parliamentary constituencies in the London Borough of Barnet.
