Rejected petition Demand the resignation of Sam Gyimah MP.

Sam Gyimah, Conservative MP for East Surrey, today filibustered the proposed Turing Bill.

This is despite being part of the Ministry for Justice, and previously announcing his support for the Bill.

Lies, undemocratic acts of petulance, and homophobia have no place at all in the 21st Century.

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 resignation of an individual Minister is not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.

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