Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition Allow Emergency Services to queue skip, in food and drink establishments.

Emergency Services in the United Kingdom, go above and beyond duty, every time they put their uniform on.

Consequently, whenever they get a minute to grab some food or drink, they can be caught up in queues and then end up having to leave, prior to eating.

More details

I think it should be nationally accepted that all Emergency Services employees, are able to skip public queues for refreshments. Thus allowing them to eat and drink as quick as possible, prior to having to rush off again.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

At the moment, this would be a decision for individual businesses, not the UK Government or Parliament.

If you'd like Parliament to make this a legal requirement, you could start a new petition asking for that.

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