Petition · past parliament

Demand the resignation of Theresa May as Prime Minister with immediate effect.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

She has wilfully ignored the wishes of the majority and purposefully undermined Brexit negotiations to further her personal agenda. She has embarrassed Britain on a global platform and caused significant damage to our reputation.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The resignation of a 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.
