Rejected petition Make Barack Obama the next Prime Minister of the UK

Barack Obama is soon to be looking for a job. It would be a waste to allow such an intelligent, funny and kind individual to pass us by. We should make every effort to grant him British Citizenship and get him over here to take charge. He has to be better than the clowns we currently have.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

In any case, as you might already know, the Prime Minister of the UK is not chosen by the UK Government or Parliament.

After a general election, the Queen decides who to invite to form a Government. In practice, this is usually the leader of the political party that wins the most seats in a general election. You can find out more about this here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
