Allow e-petitions calling for votes of no confidence in any Government minister

Closed 32 signatures

What the petition asks

The current Parliamentary petition rules do not allow a petition calling for a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister or Ministers.

In a climate where people of all persuasions are dissatisfied with the PM’s leadership, this should be reviewed so people can express dissatisfaction, and so MPs can debate petitions calling for votes of no confidence, even if that debate can't directly lead to such a vote.
