David Cameron should remain Prime Minister for the duration of his current term.

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Cameron, as a primary advocate for the EU, should lead us through the negotiations. I believe he is the best-equipped to present our terms to Brussels, with the support of Parliament. Stepping down now leaves us in a terribly unprepared state, where we may lose out on valuable negotiating power.

Why it was rejected

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