Carry out a debate on a motion/vote of no confidence in the Speaker of the House
In the light of recent rulings made by the Speaker that have overruled the advice given by the clerks to the house and have been made without precedent the house should consider if the current Speaker is a right and proper person to carry out this role with impartiality.
I refer to the actions and rulings made by the Speaker in the house on Wednesday afternoon of the 9th of January 2019.
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 Ministers, including the Speaker, to be sacked or for a vote of no confidence.
We used to accept petitions that called for a vote of no confidence. However, the Petitions Committee can’t schedule votes of no confidence. This was often frustrating and disappointing for petitioners.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or the House of Commons, you could start a petition about that.
Petitions calling for action on policy are more likely to be an effective way of achieving the change you want.
