This petition was rejected

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 include where you would like the statue to be placed. A decision about whether to allow a statue would most likely be the responsibility of the local council in the area where you would like that statue to be. For example, in London, it would be the responsibility of the London Assembly or one of the borough councils.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
