Petitions needs to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand you are concerned about press freedom in Hong Kong, but are not clear what action you would like the UK Government to take. In particular, we are not sure who you mean by "pro-Beijing legislators" or on what grounds you would like them deprived of their British citizenship.

You could start a new petition asking the UK Government to make representations to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region about press freedom if that is something you would like to see happen.

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