Petition Action

George Osbourne should resign for using the deaths of the 6 Phillpott children for political purposes

Additional Information

The tragic deaths of the six young Philpott children at the hands of their own parents in a house fire was used by George Osbourne to make political gain.

George Osbourne used this tragic affair as an example of an out of control welfare system.

This demonised people who are on welfare benefits and associated them with Mick Philpott. These poor children should be able to rest in peace and not have their deaths used for political points. George Osbournes actions and judgement were disgusting and he should resign
