Strip Harvey Weinstein of his honorary OBE

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

There is now irrefutable evidence that proves that Weinstein is guilty of various counts of sexual assault and harassment over the last three decades.
The UK must not be complicit in condoning Weinstein's actions or creating a culture in which instances of sexual assault/harassment go unchallenged.

Why it was rejected

It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.

We can't accept petitions asking for people's honours to be taken away. You can find out more about how honours are taken away here:
