Rejected petition Sack Andrew MITCHELL MP from being the Conservative Chief Whip

More details

Sack Andrew MITCHELL MP from being the Government Chief Whip for verbally abusing one of our Police Officers who was on gate duty at the entrance to Downing Street, London on Wednesday 19th September 2012. He is alleged to have shouted at a Constable "I’m the chief whip and I’m coming through these gates. Best you learn your ****ing place. You don’t run this ****ing government. You’re ****ing plebs."

Our Country's Police officers should not be spoken to in this manner, and in particular by any Member of Parliament.
