Sack Jeremy Hunt as Health Secretary

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

In the light of Jeremy Hunt refusing to move post in the Cabinet Reshuffle we call upon the Prime Minister to assert her authority and sack Jeremy Hunt from his position as Health Minister.

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.

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.
