This petition was submitted during the 2015 to 2017 Parliament
Rejected petition Move Parliament from London and sell the Palace of Westminster.
Rejected on
The iconic Houses of Parliament are in urgent need of repair. Moving parliament to a modern purpose built site would create much needed economic stimulus elsewhere in the UK. The existing Palace of Westminster would prove to be a popular tourist attraction.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. Your petition does not state where you wish Parliament to move to. You could start a petition outlining where Parliament should move to.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
