Force Nadhim Zahawi to resign or ask Theresa May to sack him.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Nadhim Zahawi attended the Presidents Club event in his capacity as Minister and front bench Conservative MP.

An event where women were sexually abused and threatened to be fired if they spoke out.

He has failed to hold the high expectations we expect from a Minister.
We demand his resignation and if that fails, we demand Theresa May to fire him as a Minister for Children and Families.

It is unacceptable that a Minister just stayed quiet at such a event.

It is beyond us, that he failed to question the logic behind such a 'men only' event. You can raise money for charity INCLUDING women and exclusion of women from such events is unacceptable.

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 Ministers to be sacked.
