Rejected petition Dismiss Mr George Freeman MP on grounds of discrimination

Mr George Freeman MP for Norwich publically stated that people with mental illness aren't seriously disabled, I feel he is not fit for his role as has openly discriminated against mental health. This should be grounds for dismissal due to gross misconduct. It would be in any other job.
