Rejected petition Make equality the London 2012 Olympics legacy

More details

We call on the UK government to intervene in the case of Rippington v. LOCOG and persuade LOCOG to do the right thing and carry out an equalities audit of the Olympics Sport Programme.

We want to make the lasting legacy of the London 2012 Olympics to be that we did our bit to stamp out gender inequality in the Olympics: no man or woman should be unable to compete in an Olympic sport on account of their gender.
