Rejected petition I would like to start a petition to have the bbc abolished .

Due to the rise in the number of complaints arising from the bias nature of the reporting during the referendum on whether the u.k should remain or leave the e.u and the extreme leftwing views of a large majority of broadcasters and presenters.

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. The BBC is already an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and parliament. The Charter also includes rules on impartiality.

If you wish to make a complaint about bias you can find out about how to do so here:

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