Rejected petition Remove Matt Hancock from His Position as Health Secretary
We ask the government to remove Matt Hancock from his position as Health Secretary - or that he immediately resign - after he acted unlawfully, and did not publish details about PPE contracts within the required time period.
More details
Any ordinary British citizen would expect to be fired from a job if they acted unlawfully in any capacity, and yet Hancock remains in a vital role.
He tells us to obey lockdown rules, and yet has not obeyed his own government's laws. How can anyone take him seriously now?
The only answer, to prove there are no double standards for MPs, is for him to leave.

It’s about honours or appointments.
We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for MPs/Cabinet Ministers to be sacked.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or Parliament, you could start a petition about that.
The UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for removing MPs from office because of their views or opinions.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
