Keep Boris as Prime Minister

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Reinstate Boris Johnson as Prime Minister to uphold what the people voted for in 2019
The people voted for Boris Johnson as Prime minister & don't expect self serving MP's to remove him for their own careers

Why it was rejected

It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.

We can't accept petitions about appointments. This includes calling for a Minister to be given a, or removed from their, job.

In any case, any decision to rescind his resignation would be a personal matter for Boris Johnson and the Conservative Party, not the UK Government or House of Commons 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.
