Start a no confidence motion in PM Boris Johnson

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The public need to be able to have a conduit to the heart of Government, our MPs can only do so much yet our voices are not heard. A petition to show the depth of feeling against Boris Johnson and the Conservatives is a logical choice.
The UK has suffered immense damage due to Boris Johnson's mishandling of the Coronavirus pandemic. We get the same mistruths and inaccuracies trotted out day after day from Government mouthpieces. Screened questions are asked so as to give the Government a chance to twist facts and supply easy answers. It's time that the Prime Minister and his Government heard the true feelings from the public. He needs to hear how out of touch he really is.

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 Ministers to be sacked or for a vote of no confidence.

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.
