Religious discrimination online is a big issue in today's society, we live in a multicultural society however, many people find loop holes through religious discrimination being a criminal offence. They go online and become anonymous, we should do more to stop this!

This petition was rejected

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.

It is already illegal to discriminate against people on grounds of religion. You can find out more about that here:

https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/law-and-courts/discrimination/discrimination-because-of-race-religion-or-belief/discrimination-because-of-religion-or-belief/

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the Government and Parliament to make it illegal to provide anonymous online accounts.

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