Request Prime Minister David Cameron to take back his resignation.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Based on the last 6 years of delivering the best for the people of UK, we urge David Cameron to continue with his mission and serve the nation.
In the best interest of UK, David Cameron should leverage his relationship with EU leadership and negotiate with EU the best deal for UK.

Why it was rejected

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

The resignation of an individual Minister, including the Prime Minister, is not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole. It is a decision for the individual concerned. The UK Government or Parliament cannot stop a Minister resigning.
