Bill Sweeney has been CEO of the RFU since May 2019. In that time we have seen:

• The English professional game collapse with three Premiership clubs folding (Wasps, Worcester Warriors, London Irish).
• Sweeney was criticised by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). MP Julian Knight asked Sweeney: "You, frankly, have failed in this instance, and so has the RFU. Should you not be looking at your own position?"
• The botched handling of the decision to lower the tackle height at community level creating "anger and concern" that led to an RFU u-turn.
• Eddie Jones reappointed to the position of England men's team head coach and then resign with less than a year to go before the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
• Steve Borthwick appointed as the new England men's team head coach in December 2022. Since then, Steve Borthwick has overseen just three wins out of nine, including a record home loss to France and a first ever defeat to Fiji.

We believe Bill Sweeney should be held accountable for these actions and decisions as CEO of the RFU and believe he should resign as a result.
