This petition was submitted during the 2015 to 2017 Parliament
Rejected petition A ban on the BBC interviewing Tony Blair now that the Chilcot Enquiry is over .
Rejected on
The BBC has constantly shown itself to be out of touch with the British audiences .
This is to prevent the BBC from constantly showing us possibly the most hated Politician in history .
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This decision is the responsibility of the BBC. The BBC is an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and there is no provision for the government to intervene in the BBC’s day-to-day operations.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
