Rejected petition Return the national lottery back to the UK and to 49 balls and £1 a go.
The national lottery was set up to aid good causes in the UK not to line the pockets of 300,000 teachers pensions in canada.
Close down the loophole that also allows companys to avoid taxes on the lottery.
More details
Review why HMRC deemed it not necessary to shut down the loophole that is allowing £10 million plus of taxes to be avoided.
