Start an Enquiry into the unacceptable Language by Senior members of government.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe this is NOT inline with their positions as a Senior Member of the Cabinet in Government and the other remark of similar unpalatable Language, which is also insinuating that those MP's who voted against the Confidence in the PM were EXTREMISTS & RIGHT WING.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We can't accept your petition because it's not clear what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition calling for the Ministerial Code to include rules about the language that can be used by Ministers if that is something you would like to see happen.
