Deliver a vote of no confidence in the government from the public

What the petition asks
The government is denying implementation of the will of the British people as expressed in a democratic vote to leave the EU.
17.4 million people voted to leave, leave full stop. We were not asked if we wanted to leave with a deal. Parliament and the prime minister have done eveything they can to stall, impede, and block the implementation of the result of the referendum.
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.
We used to accept petitions that called for a vote of no confidence. However, the Petitions Committee can’t schedule votes of no confidence. This was often frustrating and disappointing for petitioners.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or the House of Commons, you could start a petition about that.
Petitions calling for action on policy are more likely to be an effective way of achieving the change you want.
