Rejected petition Demand an apology for the behaviour of MP's following the vote on bombing Syria

Following the Commons debate on air strikes in Syria, a number of MP's supporting the Government were seen laughing and cheering, which as a wholly inappropriate behaviour for such a serious decision, which will no doubt involve the deaths of innocent civilians and endanger military personnel.

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 behaviour of individual MPs, and a decision about whether to apologise for their actions, is the responsibility of the individuals concerned, not the UK Government or the House of Commons as a whole.

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