Rejected petition Remove David Davis from his position as 'Brexit' Secretary.

Rejected on

David Davis has deliberately misled parliament for an extended period of time, to the extent that he allowed a parliamentary vote to take place over the release of non-existent 'Brexit' impact assessments.

David Davis has claimed on many occasions that reports which “analyse the impact of Brexit” in “excruciating detail” have been undertaken.

Knowing that no such reports exist, he allowed a vote to go ahead in parliament, which decided that that the reports must be released.

In response, it was claimed that the reports would be released within a few weeks.

He has now admitted that the reports have never existed.
