To change laws, increase powers and deny rights to travellers, who set up illegal camps, trespass and cost tax payers millions.

Travellers have more rights than local residents and it isn't fair or right.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure what changes to the law you'd like to see. Illegal encampments are already illegal.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. If you do start a new petition, you'll need to include your surname.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
