What the petition asks
Mr Cameron mislead the public with his half answers and cop outs. Such as: "He or his family will not benefit from off shore funds in the future". Truth but not the whole truth!!!. He is accused of hypocrisy for good reason, this is a country that is supposedly against Hypocrisy and Tax avoidance.
Admitting it had been “a difficult few days”, the prime minister said he held the shares together with his wife, Samantha, from 1997 and during his time as leader of the opposition. They were sold in January 2010 for a profit of £19,000.
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 of the Prime Minister or any other 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
