Rejected petition Nationalise Greggs and Wetherspoons

Greggs and Wetherspoons are vital pieces of national infrastructure; their collapse could lower the morale of the nation's workforce and start a recession. They must be protected from market fluctuations by transferring ownership of all shares in Greggs plc and J D Wetherspoon plc to HM Government.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

This is not the responsibility of the UK Parliament and Government.

We could accept a petition to nationalise the UK food and drinks industry, if that's something you'd like to happen.

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