Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition Stop the UK government dealing with Bahrain until they change their LGBTQ laws.

We as a people and government should not be doing business or have any dealings with countries who's views on LGBTQ rights are so opposed to our own. If this becomes policy it should then be extended to any country who violate the rights of their LGBTQ community.

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 UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what action you'd like the Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

There are already petitions calling for action against countries with poor LGBT rights records, including Brunei, which you might like to sign if they call for something you want to happen:
