This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for MPs or Ministers to be sacked or for them to resign. Public statements, including apologies, are a matter for individual MPs, not the Government or House of Commons.

Since you started your petition, Matt Hancock has resigned and Sajid Javid has been appointed Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.
