Call on Theresa May to resign as Prime Minister

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

The PM is proving ineffective in running Her Majesty’s Government and is bringing the Country into disrepute
She has tried but isn’t up to the job

Why it was rejected

It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.

We can't accept petitions calling for someone to be given or lose their job. This would be a personal decision for the Prime Minister.
