This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government
Rejected petition David Davis must resign for misleading parliament on Brexit impact papers.
David Davis had given 800 pages of heavily redacted analysis to the Brexit committee, but has now admitted that these impact studies do not even exist.
We the undersigned urge parliament to raise a privilege complaint with the Speaker, as David Davis is in contempt of parliament.
More details
A year ago David Davis said his department was "in the midst of carrying out about 57 sets of analyses" on different parts of the economy. He has now said the impact of Brexit on different sectors had not been assessed.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The resignation of a Minister would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
