Petition · past parliament
PM Boris Johnson must resign, replaced with a temporary unity government.
Rejected

What the petition asks
The ruling by the Supreme Court that the action by PM Boris Johnson to prorogue Parliament was unlawful makes his position untenable. The current government has no majority so therefore it should be replaced with a temporary unity government that can command the confidence of the house of commons.
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.
