Rejected petition Immediately remove John Bercow from being the Speaker of the House of Commons

Presently it appears Mr Bercow is abusing his position to deliberately manipulate the terms of Brexit as he so desires to frustrate the government's attempts to leave. This is unacceptable as it is against the wishes of the electorate who voted both to leave and for the current coalition government.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

The resignation of an MP, including the Speaker, 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.
