Theresa May to resign as Prime Minister

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Being a Remainer to begin with, Theresa May is not suitable to negotiate Brexit, the people voted OUT and we want OUT, she has been a shambles since taking over as PM and we the people of Britain want her to resign

Why it was rejected

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

The resignation of the Prime Minister would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.

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.
