Rejected petition Make it compulsory for supermarkets to give surplus food to homeless & charities

Homeless people need more support. Considering the way that homelessness has increased in recent years, such an action would help improve the desperate conditions homeless people are living with. Feeding the homeless allows them to focus on other important issues such as finding work and shelter.
