What the petition asks
We the undersigned believe that a serving Prime Minister should not be able to hold a peerage.
It causes conflict in our unwritten constitution with the House of Lords, and also it is a responsibility of the Prime Minister to represent his Country.
It causes conflict in our unwritten constitution with the House of Lords, and also it is a responsibility of the Prime Minister to represent his Country.
Being a Prime Minister is a hugely important role for representing the people against the Monarchy. To see a Prime Minister representing his Country while holding a title that makes her/him a serf to the King is laughable and makes a mockery of the Magna Carta.
Any person taking on this huge role representing his/her people on the World stage should immediately hand back the title in respect of the fact they are serving the people.
We the undersigned wish to see this implemented.

Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
We can't accept petitions that ask for someone to be given an honour, or have an honour taken away.
