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, you could start a petition asking for a specific change to taxes, or for people who earn below a certain amount not to have to pay the TV Licence fee.

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