Rejected petition Direct Democracy for the UK
Rejected on
We believe the UK electorate would feel more involved and have more of a voice under Direct Democracy, and that politicians would be more accountable under this system of government.
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. We're not sure exactly what you mean by "direct democracy". You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
