Rejected petition Vote of confidence in The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

On September 12th 2015 the people of Great Britain voted for Jeremy Corbyn to become the leader of the Labour Party. Since then he has come under fire from the press and various members of the Party.

This MUST stop.

Let's stand together and show that we have total faith in Jeremy.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The expression "vote of no confidence" is used when talking about a vote in the House of Commons which tests whether or not the Government of the day has the confidence of a majority of MPs in the House of Commons. That's why we allow petitions asking for a vote of no confidence in the Government or in individual Ministers. The concept of the House having “confidence” in someone does not apply to backbench or Opposition Members.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
