Why was this petition rejected?

We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.

We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.

The Government's New Plan for Immigration states that those who arrive in the UK, having passed through safe countries, or who have a connection to a safe country where they could have claimed asylum, will be considered inadmissible to the UK’s asylum system. The plan also states that the UK Government will seek rapid removal of inadmissible cases to the safe country from which they embarked or to another safe third country.

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