Rejected petition Make politicians adhere to accepted appropriate conduct codes in Parliament
The childish behaviour of some politicians is detrimental to the government of our country. This culture of bullying and ridicule is usually stamped out in the playground. Why is it being tolerated in our Government?
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
The House of Commons already has a Code of Conduct:
http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmcode.htm
If you would like this Code to be changed, to include new rules about behaviour in the Chamber, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what new rules you would like to be added.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
