PM and Parliament should condemn the comments made by Michael Gove.
Michael Gove compared being interviewed by presenter John Humphrys with going into Harvey Weinstein's bedroom.
He added: "You just hope you emerge with your dignity intact."
We call upon Theresa May to suspend Michael Gove as he has breached the Code of Conduct for Members of Parliament, Section V Pt 16, states that; “Members shall never undertake any action which would cause significant damage to the reputation and integrity of the House of Commons as a whole or of its members generally.”
It is incumbent on MPs in the public domain to use their influence and considered judgement so that sexual assault is treated with the seriousness it deserves. To do anything else does their constituents and citizens of this Country a disservice.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Complaints that an MP has broken the House of Commons Code of Conduct are the responsibility of the independent Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards.
