Remove Theresa May from office

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Theresa May has incompetently divided the country, brought back a deal which was not good enough from the EU, and consistently goes back on her word. We ask that all political parties and MP's request a motion of no confidence as urgency and remove her from office with immediate effect.
Evidence is abundantly clear, no need to list

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 Ministers, including the Prime Minister, to be sacked or for a vote of no confidence.

We used to accept petitions that called for a vote of no confidence. However, the
Petitions Committee can’t schedule votes of no confidence. This was often frustrating and disappointing for petitioners. Petitions calling for action on policy are more likely to be an effective way of achieving the change you want.
