What the petition asks
The Supreme Court has ruled that PM Johnson unlawfully suspended Parliament. Unlawful conduct is not compatible with continuing to hold the office of PM. If PM Johnson refuses to resign voluntarily, Parliament should take the necessary measures to eject him from office.
Evidence : Judgement of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom dated 24th September 2019.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The resignation of the Prime Minister would be an individual decision for that person, and not a decision for the Government or Parliament as a whole.
If you're concerned about a particular policy or decision that's the responsibility of Government or Parliament, you could start a petition about that.
