This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government
Rejected petition Start the impeachment Process of Theresa May.
We, the people, have no faith in Theresa May to lead this country. We believe that she does not have the public's best interests at the forefront of her mind and therefore, we would like to request that she resign as leader of the Conservative party or face the impeachment process.
More details
Impeachment has not been used since 1806.
There have been fewer than seventy impeachments during the whole course of English history. There are two distinct periods in which impeachment was relatively common; firstly in the 14th century until the establishment of the Tudor dynasty and secondly in the 17-18th century. A quarter of all of them occurred in the years 1640-2.
Now it's time to begin this process against May for putting hers and her ministers' needs before the needs of the UK public.

We can't accept a petition calling for impeachment because this procedure is now considered obsolete. It's therefore not clear what action could be taken on this petition.
