Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Her constituency voted 70% in favour of Brexit yet she continues to campaign for Remain. She is not a fair representative of the people who placed her as MP and should resign or call a local election to establish her ability to represent her constituents.

Why it was rejected

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

This would be a decision for the individual MP and not the UK Government or Parliament.
