Rejected petition Reform the e-petition system to allow for more views to be expressed

More details

The current e-petition system is stifling the views of the people. It is our belief that too many petitions are rejected, and not enough are making it through. We believe that more petitions should at least be given a chance to collect signatures, and be pulled from the list after a period of time.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

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

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
