Rejected petition Put an "Oppose this Petition" button on all UK Government petitions.

Many people may disagree with the aims of a UK Gov petition but currently the only way of showing this is to start an alternative petition. A simple red "Oppose this petition" button (in addition to the green "Sign this petition" button) would give parliament a more balanced view of voters' wishes.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
