Rejected petition Take away parking restrictions in London until Covid -19 is finished.

While we are being encouraged not to use public transport there is still alot of us who are being asked to go into work. We can't say no in fear of being first to go when cuts are being made. By allowing people to park in London without paying this means less people on the trains.

I am scared to see my own family as I am being asked to go on the trains at the time. If the government won't give us full lock down we need support to make this as quick as possible.

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Parking restrictions and charges are a matter for local councils, not the UK Government or Parliament. Since you started this petition, some councils have introduced exemptions for some essential workers. You should check your local council website for more information.
