Should citizens have the legal power to recall their Member of Parliament before the next election?
Recall legislation allows voters to remove an elected official from office through a direct petition and subsequent vote before their term legally ends. Proponents argue it empowers citizens and ensures continuous democratic accountability by preventing politicians from ignoring their constituents after securing a seat. Opponents argue it leads to constant partisan campaigning, destabilizes the government, and allows well-funded special interest groups to weaponize public outrage over single issues.
