Trigger a by-election in Burton now our MP is an Independent
Shamed MP for Burton & Uttoxeter has become an Independent MP following a disciplinary by the Conservative Party Disciplinary Committee at the end of October 2018.
7500 or more signatures are needed to demand a by-election (10% of the electorate).
We need our local media to highlight this.

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 to be sacked or fired.
The resignation of an MP would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
