David Cameron to step down following his tax scandal

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Following the leak of the Panama papers, David Cameron must step down immediately. Hypocrites can not lead our nation

Why it was rejected

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

In any case, the resignation of the Prime Minister is not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole. If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or Parliament, you could start a petition about that.
