This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about honours or appointments.
The resignation of the Prime Minister would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or UK Parliament as a whole
In any case, 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:
