The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government and Parliament are not responsible for removing MPs from office because of their views or opinions.
In any case, the Recall of MPs Act 2015 only provides for a recall petition to be triggered if an MP is sentenced to a prison term or is suspended from the House for at least 21 sitting days.
