This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

We can't accept petitions about 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.
