Call for e-petitions to be debated in parliament

Common sense at last - Gordon Brown has called for e-petitions to be debated in parliament.

The current system seems a bit of a farce (OK a lot of a farce) as any responses tend to pay lip service to the concept and never actually address the petitioners issues.

With the farcical event of 1.7 million signatures against road pricing and the scheme still going ahead, it certainly looks like the e-petitions system needs sorting.

If you agree, someone has already created an e-petition suggesting that e-petitions are debated in parliament once they reach a certain number of signatories.

You never know, someone might just take notice!
