Rejected petition Dismiss Tory MP Anne-Marie from the party following her use of racist language.
Anne-Marie Morris is the Conservative MP for Newton Abbot. She recently had the party whip suspended due to her use of racist language during a conversation about Brexit. With rumours of the party restoring the whip, we want the Conservative Party to actually dismiss her from the party.
More details
Anne Marie Morris used the N word to describe the prospect of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.
The Party later confirmed she had had the whip withdrawn.
Announcing the suspension, Theresa May said she was "shocked" by the "completely unacceptable" language.
"I immediately asked the chief whip to suspend the party whip," she sad.
"Language like this has absolutely no place in politics or in today's society."
Despite May's shock, it is rumoured that the whip is to be restored shortly.
