This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.

Decisions about what news to report is a matter for individual news organisations, not the Government or House of Commons.

As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
