The Queen appoint a government of National Unity

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

With the recent referendum to leave the EU, the threat to our United Kingdom, loss of leaders of major political parties and the time it takes for those parties to decide on new leaders, this petition asks Queen Elizabeth II to appoint a new Prime Minister to lead a government of National Unity.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Following the vote to leave the EU, please form a Government of National Unity
