Petition · past parliament

I will renounce my support of the Labour Party if Corbyn is not on the ballot.

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Corbyn is the leader of the Labour Party, at the very least he should be on the ballot. He won the approval of a large majority of union members, of those outside parliament, and it is parliament who are trying to change this, not the people. For him not to be an option is grossly undemocratic.

Why it was rejected

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

The leadership of a political party is a matter for the party concerned, not the Government or Parliament.
