This petition was submitted during the 2015 to 2017 Parliament
Rejected petition Hold a vote of no confidence in the current UK Government.
Rejected on
In 2011 the coalition government changed the rules regarding calling a snap general election. One of the only ways to hold an early election is if a vote of no confidence is passed in Parliament.
Since the current government took power in 2015 it has been mired in scandal and its decisions have led to the public losing faith in their governance!
Some examples;
The off shore tax avoidance by senior MPs and their families while cutting services to the most vulnerable in society is morally wrong.
The failure to come to a satisfactory agreement with junior Drs leading to strike action.
The failure to protect British industry for wholesale sell off.
Wasting tax money on a EU leaflet.
