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 understand you're concerned about migration into the UK, however it's not clear what specific checks or tests you want migrants to be subjected to as part of this 'vetting'.

In any case, migrants entering the UK are already required to undergo certain checks by UK Border Patrol. You can find out more about this here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-part-1-leave-to-enter-or-stay-in-the-uk.
