Rejected petition Donald Trump to visit Carlisle on state visit to the UK

As Carlisle would benefit economically and financially if the President of the US visited Carlisle

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The UK Government isn’t responsible for making the final decision about the programme for a state visit. The Government does discuss the options for the programme with the visiting government. However, the final decision on whether they take up the Government’s suggestions would be for the visiting government to make. The UK Government can’t force a visiting government to include a particular visit in the programme.

You could start a new petition urging the UK Government to encourage President Trump to visit Carlisle.

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