Rejected petition: speaker of the House of Commons get prime minister to answer questions properly

Rejected on

I want the prime minister to actually answer a question put to him instead of the waffle and avoidance. I find pmq’s are a waste of taxpayers money because the prime minister doesn’t provide accurate answers tax payers are entitled to know.

To hold the government to account for its actions and decisions


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, and Members are responsible for their answers to questions.

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