Rejected petition A law to be passed that forces all UK retailers to have a “UK produce” filter

I wish to make it easier for UK citizens to support UK business by forcing retail in the UK to make it easier for customers to limit their shopping to UK only produce

More details

I believe in a post Brexit economy and in these times of global warming it’s important that we enable consumers to make decisions to support produce that is made in the UK and has travelled the least amount of distance
