Rejected petition Remove Dominic Cummings from any position within the uk government.

Remove Dominic Cummings from his position as advisor, and not appoint him in any future positions within government, as his presence is detrimental to the best interests of the population.

More details

Simply put, while Cummings is in any kind of advisory position to the government, I have even less faith in their integrity than usual. I do not believe anything put forward by that man is in the best interests of the country, nor do I believe the Prime Minister capable of doing the right thing.
