Petition · past parliament

Boris Johnson must resign.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Following todays unanimous ruling by the Supreme Court, it is clear that we currently have a Prime Minister who feels he is above the law. He is not.
His actions in prorouging Parliment were unlawful. How can we have a PM who breaks the law. He needs to go, and he needs to go now.

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.
