Rejected petition Stop ticket tout sites buying gig tickets and re-selling them at 3x face value

I recently tried to buy tickets to see Foo Fighters at the London Stadium in June ‘18. All tickets had been bought by ticket tout sites and were being re-sold at at least 3x face value, sometimes more. Many fans are being exploited and something needs to be done.
