Remove David Cameron from office because of dishonesty re his tax affairs

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

In the last week, Mr Cameron has made several statements regarding his off-shore tax arrangements. These statements have been contradictory, hypocritical and of questionable honesty. This behaviour is unacceptable in anyone in public office.
All Mr Cameron's statements on the issue are on public record.

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept your petition because the resignation or removal of the Prime Minister is not the responsibility of the UK Government and Parliament as a whole.

We already have a petition open calling on the House of Commons to consider a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister:

Consider a vote of no confidence in David Cameron
