Rejected petition Improve security and police presence in all public areas and events

Due to the recent terror attacks this year. I believe it is necessary to improve security in population hotspots including random checks and metal detectors at public events, buildings (museums, landmarks, etc.) There should also be an improved police presence at popular public areas

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This would be an operational matter for the police and other security services, not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament as a whole.

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