Rejected petition Baby formula to be included in offers

More details

I want the Government to change legislation to allow Boots and Supermarkets to include baby formula in offers, ie 3 for 2 and for purchasers to be able to collect Boots Advantage points and Nectar points.
Whilst "breast is best" there are mothers who physically cannot breastfeed. I believe that in a democracy we have the freedom to choose so why are mother penalised for choosing formula?
