Remove Roger Scruton from the 'Building Better, Building Beautiful' Commission
Rejected
14 signatures
What the petition asks
Roger Scruton's well-known views on contemporary design make him wholly unsuitable to head the commission. The role requires someone who is open-minded and objective to drive forward design and improve housing standards in the United Kingdom.
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 someone to be sacked.
