Rejected petition Require the PM answer questions at prime ministers questions.

Not answering questions in PMQs shows disrespect for every voter in this country.

More details

At the moment PMQs are a laughing stock - questions are asked and the PM balusters, lies, obfuscate and worst of all avoids answering questions put to them (other than the most obsequious, cringe worthy planted questions).

This is massively disrespectful of the public, many of who want to hear answers.

The PM should be required to answer the questions raised in a clear and concise way.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament as a whole aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Order in the Commons is the responsibility of the Speaker personally, and the Prime Minister is responsible for answers to questions.

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