Especially in this current National and political crisis, the people need to be assured that their voices matter and they will be heard
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
In particular, we're not sure whether you want a new type of electoral process for selecting the Prime Minister, or a general election. We're also not sure whether you want this to apply only to the selection of the next Prime Minister or for all future Prime Ministers.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
