This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
As drafted, we think the petition is about Spanish Government policy, which is a matter for the Spanish Government, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You may wish to redraft and resubmit the petition, making it clearer the action you wish the UK Government or Parliament to take: for instance, "Press the Spanish Government to yield all claims it thinks it has over Gibraltar".
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
