Rejected petition This government must be scrutinised against the Seven Principles of Public Life

I seek immediate scrutiny of every cabinet minister (including the Prime Minister) to establish whether every one of them has fully adhered to every part of each of the Nolan Principles during the past 12 months of the Covid19 pandemic, and especially 1.2 Integrity, 1.5 Openness, and 1.6 Honesty.

More details

I have recently become aware of the Seven Principles of Public Life (also known as the Nolan Principles) to which all government employees must adhere at all times - I strongly feel that these principles have not been upheld (especially with regard to 1.2 Integrity, 1.5 Openness, and 1.6 Honesty), and furthermore I believe that several ministers have flagrantly deviated from them on numerous occasions in the award of contracts and when answering questions in Parliament about such matters.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure what you mean by 'immediate scrutiny' and how you'd like this to take place.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, such as changes to the MPs' Code of Conduct, about which you can read more here:

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