Rejected petition Remove Nadine Dorries as chairperson of the Investigatory Powers Bill
Rejected on
Nadine Dorries has been selected to chair the Investigatory Powers Bill, otherwise known as then IP Bill.
She has no relevant experience and has already demonstrated bias in relation to it via Twitter.
She should be removed and replaced with someone more knowledgable and less partisan.
