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.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. Existing laws already provide for criminal offences relating to conduct in cases where the offender is motivated by hostility or hatred towards the victim's race. It is unclear what other action you would like Parliament or Government to take.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

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