This petition was submitted during the 2019 to 2024 Parliament
Rejected petition Future lockdowns to be National. All UK together for same length of time.
Rejected on
All Ministers of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland to implement lockdowns Nationaly for the same duration.
Unfortunately not everyone will abide by the rules, and will cross borders. We need to stop our NHS being overwhelmed. We need to look after people s mental health. We need too get the economy on the road to recovery. We must stand together.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The UK Government is only responsible for lockdown restrictions in England. Restrictions in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are a matter for the devolved administrations in those nations.
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to seek to coordinate future lockdowns with Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
