Put forward a vote of no confidence in Hastings and Rye of our elected MP

Petition Details

Our faith in our elected MP for Hastings & Rye has diminished since her failure to speak the truth in the cabinet.
We would therefore appreciate an election for a new, honest MP for our constituency.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept this petition because it asks for something that neither the House of Commons nor the Government can do. The expression "vote of no confidence" is used when talking about a vote in the House of Commons which tests whether or not the Government of the day has the confidence of a majority of MPs in the House of Commons.

The concept of the House having “confidence” in someone does not apply to select committees or individual MPs.
