Require MPs proven to mislead public to resign and create 'fact check' committee
We think that MPs who mislead the public should be held accountable and required to step down. We also want the Government to set up an independent 'fact check' committee. We feel that we need to restore honour and integrity into politics.

All MPs should be honest. The elected House of Commons, rather than an outside organisation, should continue to regulate the conduct of MPs, who are directly accountable to their constituents.

Background
We do not think MPs should be allowed to mislead the public. We think mistruths should be highlighted and those guilty should be required to resign.
