Rejected petition Call for the resignation Of John Bercow for refusing Donald Trump.

He has allowed Chinese President Xi Jinping and the Emir of Kuwait, to address Parliament, despite their human rights approaches to Tibet and Israel, yet feels it right to dismiss the opportunity for the leader of the free world.
This shows at best a lack of judgement along with pure hypocrisy.

Why was this petition rejected?

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

The resignation of the Speaker is a personal decision for the Speaker, and is therefore not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament.
