This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes petitions calling for people to lose their jobs.

Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.

Anyone can ask the Attorney General to review a sentence they think is too low, and only one person needs to ask for a sentence to be reviewed. You can find out how to do that here:

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