Remove John Bercow from his speaker's position.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

John Bercow has shown bias in his roll as speaker in favour of remaining within the EU against the majority wishes of British Voters.
We would like parliament to debate his removal from the position of speaker.

Why it was rejected

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

The resignation of an MP, including the Speaker, would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
