What the petition asks
By bringing in austerity measures against the will of the people leading to many suicides and the raise in food banks I feel that he is no longer fit to hold the position.
Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for Cabinet Ministers to be sacked or fired.
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.
