Petition · past parliament

Table a vote of no confidence in John Bercow, Speaker of the House of Commons.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

For a Speaker, who by his nature is a remainer, to block amendments that have a direct consequence on the outcome of votes in the House is disgusting.
It is time for John Bercow to go.

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for a vote of no confidence.
