Rejected petition Automatic life sentence for convictions of paedophilia
Rejected on
If enough of us sign this it will have to become law.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
The terms "paedophilia" is used to describe a variety of different criminal offences. We're not sure which crimes you would like this to apply to.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
