Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, if you'd like the law to be changed so that retailers have to show all weights and measures in imperial units, you could start a new petition asking for that.

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