I would like the Government to give terrorists and there supporters a longer jail sentence or deportation back to there family roots country.
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.
The Government already has the power to deport people when the Home Secretary has decided that their removal from the country is 'conducive to the public good', so we're not sure what else you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do.
A court can also recommend deportation if someone is convicted of a criminal offence with a prison term.
British citizens cannot be deported. You can find more information about that here:
We could accept a petition asking for longer sentences for terrorist offences, if that's what you'd like to happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
