Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Formerly apologize to Dennis Skinner for being unfairly ejected.

On 11/04/16 Dennis Skinner was ejected simply for calling David Cameron "Dodgy Dave". David Cameron can accuse others of being "Terrorist Sympathizers" and yet not a problem?

He was ejected under Standing order 43 - "The Speaker, or the chair, shall order any Member or Members whose conduct is grossly disorderly to withdraw immediately from the House during the remainder of that day’s sitting; " . He was not grossly disorderly, and I'm pretty sure he was just asking the same questions that most of the British Public want to know aswell.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Any decision to apologise would be a personal decision by the Speaker, and not the responsibility of the Government or of the House of Commons as a whole.

If you would like Standing Order No. 43 to be changed, you could start a petition calling for that.

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