This petition was submitted during the 2015 to 2017 Parliament
Rejected petition Remove Speaker Bercow for his interference in U.K. foreign policy.
Rejected on
Speaker Bercow has announced he will prevent President Trump from speaking to both Houses of Parliament. This is an interference by one man into the U.K. Government's Foreign policy and he should be removed as Speaker.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
There is no mechanism for the removal of a Speaker during a Parliament. Other than at a general election, the Speaker can only stop being Speaker through resignation or death.
If you like, you could sign the petition below, which asks the House of Commons to debate a vote of no confidence in the Speaker:
