Refuse to allow early recess at this time of political uncertainty for the UK

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

At this time of political uncertainty about Brexit and with her ministers resigning, Teresa May and her unstable government are seeking to bring forward their sum.er holiday simply to avoid a vote of no confidence and further embarrassing incidents.
They work for us and should not be rewarded for disastrous incompetence with extra holiday. They should face the consequences of their actions.
