Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition Put forward a no confidence vote on boris Johnson for his proroguing actions.

What boris Johnson has done is undemocratic and it was done to stop MPs voting on a decision that would affect thousands of people. By shutting down parliament he is not allowing ministers the right to vote or block any decisions.
As a prime minister he has to put decisions to a vote.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for Ministers, including the Prime Minister, to resign or for a vote of no confidence.

We used to accept petitions that called for a vote of no confidence. However, the Petitions Committee can’t schedule votes of no confidence. This was often frustrating and disappointing for petitioners.

If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or the House of Commons, you could start a petition about that.
Petitions calling for action on policy are more likely to be an effective way of achieving the change you want.

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