His dealing with lockdown is unacceptable, if he carries on this road it will destroy the Welsh economy and mass redundancy’s will be next. Coronavirus is here to stay we need to find a way to deal with it while our economy starts moving, our extended lockdown and by today’s statements will be here for a long time.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about appointments or resignations.

We can't accept petitions about appointments or resignations through the Senedd’s petitions process. This includes calling for Ministers to be sacked, resign or for a vote of no confidence.

There are established processes through which Ministers can be removed, including through elections or a motion of no confidence in the Senedd.

If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that is the responsibility of the Senedd or the Welsh Government, you could start a petition about that.
