Rejected petition Keep refugee families together during their time in the UK
The refugees that enter our country have been through hell to get their families to a safe location and they're forced through even more suffering by being separated from their families and I want 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.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
In particular, we're not sure what you mean by "keep families together during their time in the UK". There's no specific rule that stops families from being together once they're in the UK. We think you might be talking about the rules for refugees in the UK applying for their family members to join them. You can find out more about those current rules here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
