Rejected petition Ask UK GOV to ensure the name Wales is replaced by Cymru in every walk of life

Reason being we are not foreigners in our own land. What is left of it especially as we are the recognised descendants of the native Britons prior to low country, Germanic, Scandinavian and eventually Norman incursions taking it from us.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

The Government and Parliament are not responsible for the words that people use to describe places.

You could start a new petition asking for Wales to be replaced by Cymru in all Government literature, if that's what you'd like to see happen.

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