What the petition asks
This would include performance management.
E.g. Wisdom, honesty, integrity, trust, morality, predilections, attendance, roles and responsibilties, conflicts of interest, etc. This would help prevent the huge costs and harms related to poor performance that have been seen over the past few decades.

This would help prevent the huge costs and harms related to poor performance and attendance, wasting taxpayers money, corruption, conflicts of interest, seen over the past few decades. Prevention can be a million times less problematic than correction.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about the current election processes, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
It's not clear if you want parliamentary elections to be abolished entirely and replaced with a new recruitment process, or if you want something else. It's also not clear who you want to be responsible for selecting MPs.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
