Force leader of the House of Commons to resign after anti LGBT comments
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
The leader of the House of Commons made comments arguing that parents should be able to remove children from LGBT education in schools. She should resign or be dismissed from government for her homophobic stance. The prime minister failed to condemn it when questioned by the MP for Brighton Keptown
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The resignation of a Minister would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
