Make Andrew Turner Resign from Parliament,

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Mr Turner has been unaccountable and ignoring many media enquiries about his recent voting. He has recently also shown no concern about the impact on Island Residents when voting in favour of cuts.
Mr Turner does not seem concerned about the Isle of Wight Council having there budget cut. In fact he has previously voted in favour of cutting funding to local councils. This in turn means housing benefit and council tax benefit is being cut and islanders will suffer again.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The resignation of an individual MP is not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
