Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The UK Government is not responsible for the content and tone of campaign materials produced by charities, and there are regulators in place to consider complaints against a charity on the basis of their fundraising or advertising. You can find out more here: https://www.gov.uk/complain-about-charity.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
