This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you'd like a recall for an MP found guilty of breaching the Official Secrets Act, or if you'd like them to be disqualified from office.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
