Rejected petition ePetitions... the Public have no confidence in them.

More details

As the Backbench Business Committee overseeing the e-petitions will not be making time for Parliament to discuss the two ePetitions that have, so far, successfully reached 100,000 signatures, this petition is to show disgust with politicians with the cynical way that politicians court public opinion and then ignore it when the public participate in their games.

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.
