Strip Lord John Kilclooney of his title and seat in the house of lords

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Remove a demonstrably racist man from his seat in one of our country's highest chambers
A sitting member of the house of lords referred to the U.S. vice-president elect as "the Indian" in a demonstrably racist and diminishing tweet, unacceptable behaviour for a peer to use such language about a duly and democraticly elected world leader

Why it was rejected

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