Rejected petition Invite Barack Obama to become the UK Prime Minister

Obama is set to leave his Presidential Role from the USA very soon and regardless of the results of the latest election, many of UK people expressed how they would miss Obama. I feel that with Barack's knowledge and leadership he would be a great PM for the UK!

More details

Barack Obama's background in politics is very clear - He is an impeccable leader who has adaptable communication skills and I feel this rivalry between Obama and Trump would benefit the UK market and attribute to a stronger future for the UK citizens.

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:
