What the petition asks
Theresa May has failed this country and colluding with Jeremy Corbyn is the last straw. Teresa May should be removed as PM and a pro Brexit MP should replace her to lead us out of the EU ASAP.
Only someone who believes in UK and supports Brexit should lead us in this process.

Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
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:
