Rejected petition Boris Johnson and No 10 insulted and humiliated Her Majesty. He must resign.

Boris Johnson must resign.

More details

Boris Johnson and No 10 have insulted and deeply hurt Her Majesty the Queen by forcing her to mourn alone during Prince Philip's funeral, whilst having broken those same regulations themselves by partying just the night before.

The Prime Minister has insulted The Crown and everything it represents: the country, the people of this country, and its values.

Boris didn't just insult and humiliate Her Majesty, he insulted us all.
