Rejected petition Stop people/companies from profiting from convicted sex offenders

More details

This petition is to stop anyone person or company from profiting from convicted sex offenders in the UK

It seems companies like iTunes (other music download sites are available) are still profiting from convicted sex offenders such as Gary Glitter and former lost prophets member Ian Watkins.

I would also like this law to stop anyone who enters the UK with the intention to make money
who has been convicted of a sex offence in another country to be unable to work within the UK

for example

If a singer is convicted in the USA of a sex offence and wanted to tour around the world they would not be granted entrance to the UK to preform

I ask the government to stop companies from profiting from convicted Sex Offenders.
