Force Sir Christopher Chope to either resign or become an independent MP
Following Sir Christopher Chope's objection to making upskirting illegal and punishable by a prison sentence, he should have the whip withdrawn and either sit as an independent or be forced to resign as a Member of Parliament for Christchurch.
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:
We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for MPs and Cabinet Ministers to be sacked or resign.
The decision to withdraw the whip would be one for political parties and not the UK Government or Parliament as a whole.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or Parliament, you could start a petition about that.
