This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government
Rejected petition We the people demand a vote of no confidence in Theresa May's Brexit deal.
In 2016 the British people voted to leave the EU on the promise we would take back control of our laws, borders and trade agreements. Today, May and her cabinet have agreed a Brexit deal that keeps the UK a defacto member of the EU's customs union. This is a betrayal of the referendum result.
More details
We the people were promised freedom from EU laws and regulations. May's deal delivers the exact opposite. We the people demand that the Brexit negotiations are halted until someone more able to negotiate the deal we were promised can be appointed.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about honours or appointments.
We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for Ministers, including the Prime Minister, to be sacked or for a vote of no confidence.
We used to accept petitions that called for a vote of no confidence. However, the Petitions Committee can’t schedule votes of no confidence. This was often frustrating and disappointing for petitioners.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or the House of Commons, you could start a petition about that.
Petitions calling for action on policy are more likely to be an effective way of achieving the change you want.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
