Rejected petition Parliament to declare no confidence in Mrs May due to her mishandling of Brexit
The UK voted on 23rd June 2016 giving the Government a mandate to exit the European Union. Parliament is in turmoil due to the mishandling of Brexit by the PM Mrs Theresa May. This is to instruct Parliament to express no confidence in the Prime Minister and to request her resignation immediately.

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 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.
