This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition Ask John Bercow to stay on as speaker until he believes Brexit is settled
Rejected on
John Bercow announced he would stand down on October 31. It is now clear this would not be in the best interests of the UK
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This would be a decision for the Speaker.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
