Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for elected representatives to be sacked.

We also can't accept petitions calling for the Government to investigate individual local authorities. Scrutiny of local government is a matter for local elected representatives, not the Government or House of Commons.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:

We need a new act of Parliament - Recall of Local Government Councillors: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/313243

If you have concerns about your local authority you should raise these with a local Councillor, or the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman: https://www.lgo.org.uk/make-a-complaint/what-we-can-and-cannot-look-at

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