Petition · past parliament

Theresa May has failed to honour the Brexit referendum and must resign as PM

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The British people voted in a referendum to leave the European Union completely. In her negotiations with the EU Theresa May is seeking to keep the UK in the customs union and bound by the decisions of the ECJ for the indefinite future. This is a betrayal of the electorate and she must go.
Theresa May should resign and hand over to a member of her party who will see Brexit through according to the wishes of the British People

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept petitions calling for someone to be given or lose their job. This would be a personal decision for the Prime Minister
