Rejected petition Raise EMA payments to £40 a week!!

With Students having little or nothing income but so much to pay for, £30 a week is insufficient! Students have so much to pay for and struggle daily to keep up with payments and fund their essentials. The government don't give enough support to students and it needs changed! NOW!!

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

EMA no longer exists in England so we think you must live in another part of the UK.

Responsibility for EMA is devolved, which means that your petition is about something that the Scottish Government or Welsh Government or NI Government is responsible for. That means that the UK Government and Parliament can't look into it.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
