Petition · past parliament

Theresa May should resign, respect parliament & take her deal off the table.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Theresa May cannot carry on as Prime Minister given her Brexit deal has been voted down by MPs twice. She should resign in such a way as to avoid a no-deal by default.

She is ignoring the will of Parliament which is the elected voice of the people.

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for Ministers or the Prime Minister to be sacked.

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.
