Rejected petition Compel the Prime Minister to answer questions directly at PMQs

Simply be more transparent and honest about key issues (perhaps with exception of national security).

More details

The current format of PMQs allows both obfuscation and distraction which erodes confidence in the integrity of the government.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament as a whole aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Order in the Commons is the responsibility of the Speaker personally, and the Prime Minister is responsible for answers to questions.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
