Rejected petition Debate, and answer, points raised in A C Grayling's letter to MPs: 'I Accuse.'

This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
It would be up to individual MPs to decide whether to reply to any letter they receive, not a decision for the Government and the House of Commons as a whole.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
