This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government

Rejected petition Request for the opposition to initiate a no confidence vote in the government.

Many UK voters are very concerned about the consequences that a poorly managed Brexit will have for all of us.

A Tory party leadership contest isn't what we need at this time - the people deserve a say in how Brexit has been managed thus far and this is best achieved through a general election.

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.
